Hi all. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with kicking a particularly long term drug habit and how, if any, alcohol has played a part in your life after dependence?  Were you able to drink alcohol sociably and not have any problems? Did drinking alcohol result in you going back to your old habit or helped creating a new one? I’m really interested to hear other people’s experience. 

I myself had a nightmare, 13ish year H3roin and M3thadon3 addiction which I, very thankfully managed to come out the other side of 8 years ago. It hasn’t been without its struggles and many ups and downs. 

Would love to hear if anyone has else has similar experience and if alcohol has been a positive or negative in your life after drug addiction. 

 
I know  a couple of people who continued to use alcohol one or two times per week after beating daily use of nasal stim drugs.  But -they feelings as so different perhaps that's why thankfully my friends didn't get a new addiction to the alcohol.  But - alcohol is so very visible and something that can't really be done discretely, so maybe that's a blessing (it can't fit in a pocket, and it smells so much). 

 
Thank you for your reply 😊 Was generally quite interested in hearing people’s thoughts/experiences on this subject. Certainly alcohol use/abuse is much more socially acceptable. At least here in the uk. Than many other substances. 

Seems that alcohol can prove very problematic to individuals that have had previous issues with other substances. Alcohol seems to be a very problematic drug in general. 

 
Totally not. You get from the frying pan in the fire. Many smart drugs out there now to help.

I do drugs but NEVER alcohol. Once an recovering alcoholic the whole society will try to get you to drink again. 

Very different from C or Benzo which are NOT on every restaurant menu.

  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi thanks for the input tho I think I’d def go the route of using hcg if I do go w TrT
  6. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi nah no fear of needles and if it made me feel a lot better no fear of being on it long term as who knows if my t will even rebound after 5 years on methadone not sure if that’s the norm I hope so…the more I research the more it seems like the best choice is to just go for it with TrT rather than trying to “middle” with Enclomiphene especially now that i know it probably won’t work being on methadone altho I am tapering off 5 mg biweekly so that’ll take a while I’m at 95 now from 120
  7. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain the longer you’re on it without using HCG sometimes, (meaning years) the harder it will be to rebound if you do come off. But I’m with you, at only 22, I’ve abused myself to the point I may NEED trt. Not to mention all of the benefits
  8. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain You don’t seem it, but if you are the type that’s afraid of needles for life, don’t sweat it. I’m natty atm, but from what I hear A) you won’t want to come off and B) if you implement HCG every once in a while to your protocol, you have a better chance of being able to come off T completely and restore all (or most) of your natty production. Of course, no guarantees and it is dependent on the individual, genetics, compounds and duration of exposure, etc.
  9. L @ Layne_Cobain: @tiquanunderwood when you began the Enclomiphene, were you already off opiates? Cause after further research I don’t think it’ll even work while still on methadone…I think trt with hcg to preserve fertility and ball size is the way to go for me. I just wanna feel better. Thanks for your input on the matter btw
