At Home OTC Heroin Home Detox Kit ? Suggestions
Jan 10, 2016
My husband, Charlie and I have been hard core OF heroin addicts for the past almost 4 years. We have lost everything but 2 days ago we decided enough is enough. We honestly want to be clean but these body aches and pain are unbearable and I'm worried if we don't find a solution to help with the withdrawal symptoms we're not going to reach our goal of kicking this addiction and getting our lives and life together back in order the way we were before, this heroin is no joke buddy I fear it gets much harder one of us is gonna end up going to get some so we can stop twitching jerking throwing up having the runs (I know TMI sorry)

i went to my GP this week armed with all the info on Nalmefene and asked her to prescribe it to me. Explained that I had been in touch with SMC and the NHS but all this fell on deaf ears. She admitted she was clueless about the medicine and stated that she would need to have a conversation with my Alcohol Support worker. They have since both agreed that it will not be something they are willing to prescribe as the feel I need complete abstinence and doing this gradually is not helpful.
So the idea of dropping two units daily did not go well. Within one week I came full circle. Got down to 10 units and couldn't bear the withdrawal. Stayed at that for a few days before increasing once again. My alcohol worker stated that this was a test, to see if I was able to reduce on my own, which I clearly am not at this present time.
Now I have a home detox booked for two weeks time. Still clueless on who will be my support over the first three days as all my friends have young children and family members aren't real an option due to their locality and jobs. The plan is to start Antabuse after the detox, I'm done telling them how I feel about Antabuse.
Feeling hopeful, excited at the prospect of being alcohol free, whilst very fearful and grieving at the upcoming loss of my best friend and reliant.

I put myself in rehab for 30 days in 2002. I quit drinking for 11 years. In August of 2013 I guess I got curious and started again. First, I used to drink socially, then weekends, then it just picked up after that. I'm not at the point of blackouts or missing work. I do not drink in the morning. I do not go to the bar rooms. I drink approximately 4-6 beer a day. Each day I say I'm not going to drink but I feel like I need to just to take the edge off. I thought it's time to do something before it does get out of control like it was in 2002. I've been calling about detox but my deductible is over $2500. Is there a safe way that my doctor can help me get through this at home. There is a time coming up soon that I have 6 days off of work.

Can anyone tell me their experiences after a one week supervised home detox?
I haven't been alcohol free for many years. The only time I had a few days wine free was when I was in hospital a couple of years ago. As soon as I got home - straight to the wine bottle! It's very scary for me looking into the future - no more wine.

Any hints, tips for the next week. I am taking Vit B compound and Thiamine already. Nervous and anxious.
I have had Detox before and was sober for 6 months but thought i was fixed so hoped i could drink socially. I did until i went on an all inclusive holiday......huge mistake!! As soon as i got home I started drinking at home again on evenings.
Anyway.... here's to the future and staying alcohol free.........

ok, I have struggled with insomnia and anxiety my entire adult life, hard to go to sleep, so I began drinking about 10 years ago, only from 5-9 pm a few glasses of wine, sometimes a bottle. Im being honest. I was also on zoloft for 16 years , weaned myself off about 6 month ago to see if I could function without it. I recently started having severe panic attacks on Tuesday, so I decided to start back on my zoloft, since it worked so well to control the anxiety. I know it will take weeks before I can feel the results and be anxiety free again, but something strange happened, I decided to stop drinking one night and woke up the next day with horrible tremors, nausea, anxiety, fear, so I took a half a xanax , I only take as needed which is very rare, this calmed me down, and I read some forums online about tapering off alcohol safely at home, and how to do it. so the past several days I have cut my wine down to 2 glasses, and it said switch to beer, one per hour if needed and I haven't needed that much i had a beer this am to calm my shakes down and was able to snap out of panic mode, around 4 I started feeling that anxiety again ha a beer and am fine, so my goal is to be alcohol free, and when they say taper they mean taper, if i was drinking from -9 every day sometimes 1 bottle of wine a night, I Feel relieved that I have come a long way and am safe, I know quitting alcohol cold turkey can be fatal, my doctor has agreed with me on this method, and if I get worse I can go to detox, but that is so expensive, so I'm trying does anyone out there have experience safely detoxing at home too?

I am possibly thinking of paying for a private home detox. They have suggested it will be using valium as opposed to Librium. I was just wondering if anyone else on here had been through one?

Finally got on hand a home test kit, specifically, Core HIV 1/2 Home Test Kit. A friend sneaked on for me since it is forbidden to test anonymously in the country where I am now. My last risky exposure was 7 months ago.. After hours of prayers and hesitation, I finally tested myself. I am NEGATIVE! Now my questions are:
1. Is this result reliable? I mean talking about the reliability of home test kits
2. 7 months ago was my risky exposure, have I chosen the correct way to test myself? Was it okay to use a home test kit in this period?

I've made progress with my stage 3-4 internal hemorrhoid, though I thought I never would. Three months ago I went to two doctors who had a look, and said I needed serious surgery--rubber-band ligation would not work, and neither would THD. Since my insurance only covers work done in California (I am living in Michigan temporarily), I ruled out the $11,000 procedure.
My life was pretty much wrecked by the grape-sized hem that had to be pushed back into my anus pretty much constantly, and which made walking and standing unbearable.
From a variety of sources, here is the routine I've put together which has helped:
1. Every morning I take a stool softener, 500 mg. of magnesium, and a mineral supplement with copper and zinc. Also 2 big fish oil capsules every morning, and 2 more at night.
2. I can't eat foods that irritate my hem, so I don't: chocolate, nuts, coffee especially. And I avoid wheat products most of the time.
3. I do all the usual dietary things to avoid constipation: oatmeal, prunes, flax seed, green vegetables, fruit, yogurt, etc. (but I'd already been doing these things for years with no help for the hemorrhoid).
4. I put turmeric in something every day: salad dressing usually, but also in soups.
5. Stopped wearing anything tight around my waist.
6. This one's weird, but essential: I began talking nicely to my anus. However you do it, you have to start respecting this organ and stop taking it for granted.
7. Trying (always trying) to reduce stress, and get more sleep. This is nearly impossible in my life right now, but any small improvement helps.
8. A hot bath in the morning, and another hot bath at night.
After about 2 1/2 months of doing all this, the hemorrhoid has shrunk about 75%, and I don't have to push it in anymore, except rarely. I did use the crushed aspirin technique a lot before, but don't need to now. I can't emphasize enough how severe my case was, and how the quality of my life had been reduced to zero. I'd tried all the creams and preparations (prescription and nonprescription) and all of them are a complete waste of money.

I am pretty sure that I have a parasite infection. The simple truth is that I feel bad about it, and don't want to turn up at my doctor's office with worms. I think that there must be some natural cures, or herbs around for worms? What do you think is the best way to cure worms naturally?
