I am on my 6th day without my drug of choice and I find myself being very angry and tired when I wake up. It's like I have nothing to look forward to anymore. I am on unemployment which is alright money enough to live because of the long hours ive worked but i feel like life has nothing to offer me anymore. Is it part of withdrawal? I'm not sure what to do about it.

I feel exactly the same way...and I invariably end up taking more because its all i have to look foward to. it really does feel like life doesnt have much to offer. this must be part of withdrawal.

I miss myself

yup, these are all perfectly normal feelings, if I werent on methadone right now I would be the same way, not to mention I wouldnt have the ambition to take care of my kids...and thats sad!!!
I went to get my take homes today and almost was excused from the clinic, I would have really been screwed then, I have failed to comply, I have been missing my therapy appointments, I thought they would have cut me some slack considering all thats been going on, last week I missed because I was up in the nicu with my infant son, he was born on 7-7-06...by the way I just got to bring him home from the hospital yesterday, I am loving it!! so if I am on here less you all know why, I have 3 kids under the age of 4 and they keep me pretty busy, I am lucky I got to snaeak away right now, I just put thtem all down for a nap...anyhow the previous 2 weeks I had missed because I was in the hospital in preterm labor, well the dr that set this all up is giving me one last chance to comply, and even then she might take away my weekly take homes, I sure hope not I cant afford 40$ a day in gas to drive there, not to mention 5 hours of my time every day, It just wouldnt be phesoble, I am going to have to convince this therapist on wednesday that I do want to recover and the dr taking away my take homes will trigger me back into using, I sure hope they give me one more chance I dont want to screw this up

anyhow guys the feelings and thoughts you are having are perfectly normal in withdrawl, and the ****pyist part of that is that is what lasts the longest so I have heard, thats why many of us seek the help of a proffesional, its the only way we keep sane without our drugsI wish you all the best of luck and I pray that all of us find our ways and can do that without drugs, I hope we can all find the purpose to life without having to have drugs in our system to enjoy that...

I will keep you in my prayers

Yes, iceman this is something which can haappens to you when you need somthing and not able to get it.You know before 2-3 months i was facing the same situation which are you facing today.................You Know When I used to wake up at that time I found myself really very angry and defeated.So I used to sleep 16 hrs a day.because I was unhappy with my life.But a sudden change comes in my Life and Now I am Happy.I mean I got an aim to live life...........Exactly in the same way Try to find an aim for your life .Just dont Think about any drug.Try to keep uyou as much busy as you can............Stop thinking anyway............
Dear, believe me Some times our Life is not in our control.We have to face the life the way it comes out..........Just welcome the way it comes..........Take it as a challenge........Try to learn from this time ....Because in future when You get your job definately you'll be better performer than the other persons which got their jobs very easily because you know its value and you Know how to utilize the precious oppurtinity............
So I must say that you should not worry about anything.This is not a solution.......Have faith in god.............
And Try to live your Life to the fullest..........The time you are wasting in thinking will never come tommorow So dont get upset Try to utilise the time and definately you'll benefit from it.......

Take care

This is quite normal Ice but you can go to the doctor and get an anti-depressant.Your brain take 3-6 months normally to recover from opiate abuse.Give them a try,you don't have to feel this way....Dave
