Best seek professional medical help and perhaps change to a healthy diet and more exercise.
I do apologise in advance if I am sounding rather ignorant in anyway.


Rapidly-Greying already mentioned he didn't find Doctors useful.

He's not asking for a lecture... rather a specific question to a specific set or circumstances.


Thanks for getting what I'm saying. I don't use drugs to get wasted, I just take enough to make life tolerable and its just so difficult to stop. Withdrawal isn't fun, especially when your life is already gooseberry fool every single day and you're trying hard to hide your habit from family and work colleagues.

Totally my own fault though

Hey I apologise if I wasn't being constructive. My first comment was terrible and I was kind of being sarcastic about it all trying to make light of the situation but didn't think it through.

But my second comment was me trying to help with regards to eating healthy and exercising. Which can really make a difference.
Hope you manage to ditch the drugs maybe see your gp for help with ditching the drugs?

It's cool man, I'm thick skinned. A gp would only refer me to a drug clinic(can't remember what it's called) and I basically have to hide my addictions from pretty much everyone I know for fear of being abandoned and treated like sh1t.
It's also incredibly difficult to stop when you're in a horrible job(working as a chef in a tiny kitchen with no windows, terrible ventilation(35 - 40 degrees at times), shitty cheap equipment that breaks at inopertune moments, I can't be rattling when the job is also rock solid.
I'll try to taper off them if I find a job with better working conditions and less stress. They also help me forget that my ex wife is a cow that won't let me see my kids. I haven't seen them since boxing day 2020 because somebody told her I was wasted whilst watching them. That is a complete lie as I only take enough to stop the shakes, I never get wasted on them. I saw my wee boy(11 years old) a few weeks back through the school gates, I said hiya pal to him, he just turned around and sprinted inside the school, that ripped my heart out. Then I had all his pals shouting 'strawberry float off ya junkie bastard' so she's clearly got them terrified of me when I've never so much as raised my voice to them.

It's a difficult situation of which I'm struggling to find an answer to.

Yeah, exes using 'not letting dads see kids' as leverage/revenge is utterly despicable.

My sisters bf has two kids from a previous relationship and while not quite on the same scale of awfulness, his ex (currently in the process of divorce) has made threats to stop him seeing his daughters and other nasty gooseberry fool like selling all his belongings left in their house which she won't let him collect.

That's awful. The conditions of that kitchen sound terrible so i hope you find a new job with better conditions asap.
About your child I guess you just have to remember he is so young and cannot think for himself yet so just repeats what he's told. Kids change all the time too and when he's a bit older he will know you're not a junkie and all that and make his own mind up. So I wouldn't let it get to you too much.

Im a recovering heroin addict mate. I have read your posts in this thread and its gooseberry fool what you are going through. I too self medicated to handle anxiety etc, one day I found the magic solution to all my troubles they just simply went away. Went through a whole gooseberry fool show myself, got put out of the family home. Had to tell work what was going on and have this big inquisition when I came back after about 18m off work.

Currently on a methadone program which was the best thing I ever did. Once I got over the shame that gooseberry fool put me right. I have been stable and relatively drug free for the last 3 years. Mended all the bad stuff that happened to me and my partner, back at home now.

Its gooseberry fool when you can't talk to anyone, I found the groups good at that but if you ever wanna talk mate send me a pm.

Ps I'm happy to hear you're coming through the other end of the tunnel. Good for you lad :simper:

I second what Preezy said. Speak to somebody, you need to get help and there is absolutely no shame in doing so. Please please please don't suffer in silence, get on the phone.

Thanks pal, it does get easier always remember that. If I can turn myself around you can too, I hope that doesn't sound condescending. I just have never achieved anything I have set out to do in life and I was always 2 bad decisions away from being homeless or dead at times. I genuinely thought I was a no hoper. Honestly man, I know I don't know you but if you wanna chat or text or what ever, unload what ever is on your mind to someone who can relate to what your going through I am here man just let me know.
