Whats up Moxy,
Welcome back Man.
Did your girlfriend every go back to NY(?) ? I remember you said she was out here from somewhere. That she had some back problems or something and was Rxed perc10's. So I am sure that has to be hard to have around.
Hope things are going alright with you.
Things are going good up here in Santa Barbara. Getting ready to move though..........

Hi all-
I wonder if anyone remembers me on this site. I felt I needed to post for two reasons, because I am still having trouble staying clean, and I might have an answer to pillhell's problem.
Pill-
Check into outpatient detox centers in your area. Especially methadone clinics. Some offer a buprenex treatment, which costs about two hundred dollars, covering about five days worth of buprenex, which may get you over the worst period of your withdrawal. These centers often do not need insurance, and most will taper you down off the methadone with there own methadone supply for about ten to twelve dollars a day. Since I was in the same situation you were, this was my only option and got me off about a 1000 mg a day oxycontin habit a few months back.
Everyone-
I hope you are doing well! I have missed the people in this forum, and I think one of the reasons I keep relapsing is that I stopped posting and asking for help from the people here. I enjoyed all the intelligent and heartfelt dialogue that goes on in this forum, and in Los Angeles and Hollywood the superficialty of my business sometimes gets in the way of anything real. I hope you will welcome me back.
