Fuck.

Well.......... hmm. OK, let's look at this. Addiction is addiction, right? No addiction is better than the other, it's all the same. So. Same as you did with alcohol.... EXACTLY what you did there... you know better than me what to do. That's why I need feckin rehab and you never did... you can handle this.

Plus, I *feel* people I know and I would know if you were in a bad way and I didn't pick up on it. This is nothing compared to where you were a few years back. Right?

Hello starty!!! :l Great to see you! Sorry things are not so great though.

I discovered the "My Story" thread a few hours back and read the army ones, including yours. It was quite some story. Thanks for sharing.

He has some kind of immune related disorder. It shows up as Gingivitis but there's a bit more to it than that. Ever hopeful here though! And he is LOVELY! ) You would like him,,,

Exactly! I know I can do it, its getting in the right mindset. Well now is as good a time as any and I have to white knuckle it, I have done a few days here and there but keep going back, cannot do that anymore, my usage is way too high. I can pop 30 odd tabs a day.
Scary stuff.
The trouble with opiates is that they are so insidious, I can function very well on them whereas I couldnt on booze. BUT I haave the tools.

So when are you going into rehab? What made you decide?
I have to go dogging now. But I promise I will be back later.

It's mainly a service and MOT zens, but the oil light has come on a couple of times which worries me. Thing is that my car tax runs out at the end of the month, so I really need to get things sorted before Christmas, so I'll see what they have to say before deciding.

I'll email you the website. I am shitting planks!

I just said I need to change the course of my life. That was it really. No big momentous thing or nowt.

Call me later if you want. I still have my phone deal and I will call you back. As far as the pills go, you are just going to have to taper and stop. You know yourself what needs to be done and you can do it... you've done it before.

Oh, I quit smoking in March. Fuck's sakes I'll be sporting a halo soon... gack!

I can share what I learn in rehab with you and it might help. I know yours is more emotional that physical... like me. :l

I know. I was gutted. 26/12/11. Cher took me in with him. It was fucking awful and I will be glad to be in rehab and not deal with blooming Christmas this year. Not as much as a blooming pine scented tree for your car in this joint! Did you put the tree up?

I would just schedule it for when they can give you a loaner. Next week maybe?

It's a possibility. Depends on how much inconvenience I would be putting them to. I don't want to mess them around cos it's a small Italian family-owned business and they are decent people and they've always been very fair with me. I've been taking my car there for years.
