Funny thing is despite me being active before opium....I had that movement problem then too. It would be a struggle every day to get up and move, once I moved I felt better. Waking up feeling like **** and depressed would be regular for me...somehow I always fought through it and won. But yea, I'm doing all that...the exercise is intense, early in the day so not to interfere with my sleep...or whatever I can get of that and I do take protein which contains tons of amino acids and large amounts, also l-tyrosine on the side with b6, multi vitamins, magnesium, calcium, zinc, iron, and I eat 6 times a day (3 meals, 3 shakes). I just ******* hate RLS, sweating all day, and i especially hate the exaggerated pain. Oh well...maybe opium pod withdrawal takes longer.
the thomas recipe/amino acids helped me..exercise also helps produce/or help the brain catch up and heal/the endorphins most addicts need as the brain has decreased production due to the outside source we were feeding our brain...read the articles in the health pages..good info..and MOVE..helps more than anything when u dont feel like doing nuttin..if u get up and MOVE..u will feel better..keep posting
That would be a huge help. Seriously. It would mean the world to me. Feeling kinda crappy right now.
there is a patient at my job detoxing off opium tea, i can ask her and get back to you
feel better soon
Yes there can be some creative moments on opium as the great English writer Samual Coleridge? had and I've had them and dreams but they are really not that frequent and not always as good as we think there are and surely not worth it and it is evil. Dope makes you feel great makes you feel creative and then all of the sudden drops you in the gutter and into an ugly world. It's the ultimate deception and in the end we are the ultimate suckers for taking the bait again.

I mainly do electronic as that is my favorite style but here is the stuff I composed that was me singing and playing guitar. The second one is about opiate use...actually was about the negative aspect of it.
And i was on the opium to start just because it's something I always romanticized and loved throughout my life. i loved opium/opiates of all sorts and have been doing them on and off like maybe 3-4 times a year...once I got easy access though, which was recently for the first time of my life it turned into a problem. Like most people, the first few months I was doing it here and there...once a week or twice with no problems then after a while like most everyone, it took a hold of me the last month and I was doing it way too often especially due to the accessibility. So that's how I got into it. Another reason I was doing it is because I write music and it gave me vivid dreams and incredible sense of spiritual peace, so the inspiration was intense and the music I was writing was amazing according to my standards. Of course, all this felt great but at the end...it is an evil drug. It feels so good but it can eat you alive. I'm definitely not romanticizing it anymore. I never told anyone I was romanticizing it anyway, I just composed music based on the feeling I got, the dreams, and the sense of peace that was overwhelming as most opiate users know. I still compose music, it's one of my greatest passions. If ya'll wanna check it out it's here:

Lately the subject matter is going to be about the withdrawal, the ying and yang aspect of opiates...the good mixed in with the overwhelming evil.
Yea thank you guys. I'm definitely going to keep doing gym. That is something that I am still to this day proud to be addicted to. I love training and I love the feeling I get from it and especially the results. I lost a lot of muscle because of this addiction to poppies but I'm glad I can gain it all back due to muscle memory and my drive when it comes to bodybuilding. If it wasn't for that, it would be much harder to quit.
Another problem i have is...I still get horrible sweating. I can take the chills..but sometimes I just sweat profusely. I am perfectly capable of functioning now and going out despite the pain but the sweating becomes something that people keep asking me about. When does that go away too? That's also driving me nuts and I find myself sweating for nothing too much. Exercising keeps my heart rate up all day and this adds to the intensity of the sweating due to the withdrawal aghghg. Just relaly annoying. Well whatever, I'll have to keep on.
Still wondering if requip is a good choice for my legs because nothing else has worked naturally.
Congrats to you. Try hot showers, put 2 pillows under legs make higher than head helps with rls, keep doing gym,
Hes not using meds - he is using opium poppy pods....to get high....these are legal to buy and are quite popular with the dried floral arrangement people. However, they contain a mix of different opiate alkaloids in the pod. These can be released by grinding or making a tea solution and eating or drinking the pods and their active ingredients. HOWEVER - THEY ARE OF UNKNOWN POTENCY AND THE AMOUNT OF ALKALOIDS CAN VARY GREATLY WITH THE METHOD OF EXTRACTION - - - AND ITS EASY TO OVERDOSE ON AN UNKNOWN QUANTITY OF SOMETHING.
it does make make your pain worse at frist your body wants its fix exersise REALLY helps alot suplemts and eating well .the pain will settle down .I found that my pain was worse on the pills then off.why were you on meds to start ?
And I'm using amino acids, high protein moderate carb diet, l-tyrosine with b6, iron, zinc magnesium, calcium, multi-vitamins, and ibuprofen for pain. How long also before I can wake up without dreading waking up and feeling like **** for the first 3-4 hours. It's hard to get out of bed with this pain and this lethargy. I usually manage to do so but it takes a lot of willpower to make it to the gym and do my errands.
Oh and I was on the pods for 5-6 months...it only started getting to every day or every other day..mostly every day use for the past month.
