how long

[kaybee2]

i kow this might sound dumb but how long does OC stay in your system if you snorted them. Does it mess up something with the half life? What type of things can you drink/take to help get it out faster?

[kaybee2]

thanks. best to you too :)

Yes, I did go CT, and it is not for everyone and can be dangerous for some.  When you are ready, talk to your doc about weaning off.  Hopefully, you have a doc that is supportive of that goal and would be willing to work with you.  All my Best to you kaybee2

i get confused. Because of the subs....i mean they are doing their part in helping but is it just a band-aid, should i wean off and suck that wd up or stay on them for 2-3 years like i've seen others. I'm confused, whic i think is where alot of my anxiety comes from. I like to have things planned out and the fact that i'm not sure about this stuff makes me nervous ya know. Congrats on 37 days. Did you go CT? I dont know if i'm cut out for that.

In my limited experience, (only 37 days clean) time and the boat load of supplements and amino acids I take everyday have helped.  The fog has only really begun to clear over about the last week, and I can "feel" again!  (Not all of it is good, but not all of it is bad either; like, "Joy!")

I did have my mishaps, i do feel like my depression/anxiety isn't all that much better. But i didnt know if any stuff like green tea, cranberry etc, really helped flush it out. I was just pokin around on this site and just online, and on other sites people were taking body weight and half lifes and i was just wondering, for my own curiosity, on the info about half life and/or shelf life ( dont know the difference) some sites were saying 1-2 day which i just thought to myself- no way and some said 3 months. some said 60 hours. Also some mentioned about if your heavy and sstuff can stay in your cells and tissue so i didnt know if maybe stuff thats helps flush you like green tea and etc helps flush the stuff stuck in your fatty tissues and such. Sorry if i rambling, i was just clearing up all the reasons for my ques in my inital post. I've always gotten good info from this site, so i'd tought i would put it out there. Just keepin busy, wondering stuff, thats all. wondering what would help lift the fog.....

To answer your question about detoxing and getting the oc out of your system, there is absolutely things you can do.  Read the amino acid protocol at the bottom, right side, of this page.  Amino acids are the building blocks of cells in our body, that most of us with a prior or current addiction have depleted due to poor diet and drug use.  The amino acid 5-HTP is particularly good for mood and depression.  Milk thistle and alpha lipoic acid help the liver to clear itself of toxins.  You might ask someone knowledgeable about a good whole body cleanse at your local health food store or natural foods market.  Generally, the safeset route for a cleanse is in this order:  GI, kidney, liver then blood.
Best of luck.

Then why did you write this?


i.m on subs and had my mishaps i feel like its not completely out, maybe it's the sub dont know. just looking for answers, i always come here for answers..


Look, I am not trying to attack you, like I said, I just want to make sure you are ok. You posted the question about you and now you are saying it isn't you? I may be mis-reading all this. So I will just drop it. If you need any help/advice, please don't hesitate to ask..

[kaybee2]

i was reading previous posts about different situations, that was the reason i asked.

[kaybee2]

just wanted to know if there was a difference between taking them orally with coating on, with the time release stuff or wen people take coating off and crush, snort, whatever. It was curiosity, thats all.......

[liscamdave]

Your not being attacked at all. No one wants to attack you, we want to see you get better. Your question came off like you wanted us to tell you what you were looking at in terms of the oc staying in your system and if youare taking sub,. that makes us concerned. That's all. The point is the question is because you had a mishap as you said, so we just didn't know why you wanted to know how long it takes to come out of your system. If you are still taking the sub, just try to stick with the program and go to meetings and don't even worry about how long the oc is in your system, who cares, as long as you are trying to get clean again. That is what matters most.

[kaybee2]

NO. Actually I'm 90+ days clean and CURRENTLY in a program with after care and the whole nine yards. Did i mess up a few times, yes, i was honest with my dr and we worked it out. I dont want to take subs to fill me in between oc's. been there done that. Just wondering what the difference was between orally taking them wit coating on etc... and crushing them, snorting them etc......i get confused about the half life info and didnt know if it was different between the two ways that people abuse these meds. Yes, i'd would like to know if there is anything I can do do sort of flush out toxins more. I've been having alot of depression and thought it would help. i feel as though im being attacked, maybe not, maybe i'm being to emotional, but i've been coming here for some time to just ask questions that maybe i wouldnt feel comfortable asking my dr. Sorry

[liscamdave]

So you want us to tell you that its ok for you to take sub once and a while and then take oc's too? And if you will get in trouble with your sub dr if they find the OC, is this right? Is this what you want to know?

[kaybee2]

i tried on google. FYI, its curiosity.  Although that is my DOC, im in a sub program and already had my test. I was just having a conversation with my husband about if theirs a difference inhow long its in your system and i know even tough i.m on subs and had my mishaps i feel like its not completely out, maybe it's the sub dont know. just looking for answers, i always come here for answers..
