Why doesn't anyone call Artie on his shit? Withdrawal is not that bad

0  2017-10-07 by turnthemaround

It's proven withdrawal from opiates is just like having the flu. He's talked about on AA a few times now how rough detox is and why he had to keep up his addiction. Obviously it's not fun mentally, but physically it's nothing.

Have you been through it ?

Tsss yeah what am I a river running or sumpthin

You sound like typical addict. How about you go "tune in and drop out" and listen to The Doors or somethin junkie trash

Woah, tell us how you really feel champ! This guy fucks, am I right gang?

You live in NYC fucker? I'll shosw you who fucks

I'm coming there this fall

Have you done it? It sucks and worse than the flu. Not being able to sleep for a month was the worst part.

No, but I quit video games which I imagine is similar.

You can research this though, every doctor in the field says at worse it might be like a "bad case of flu".

I quit video games which I imagine is similar

It isn't

Its like quiting video games AND cartoons

^ Retard alert !

Spoken like someone who hasn't quit video games.

Is this a bit?

I had the sweats for weeks after I got rid of my PS4

It's compared to the flu because of similar symptoms, but it's far more intense. I've had bad flus and I've gone through opiate withdrawal and it was much worse than the flu with the body aches and insomnia.

I'm not saying Artie is right not to quit, because he should have quit years ago. But to say "oh, it's no big deal" is also wrong. Even quitting cigarettes cold turkey is difficult.

Oh ok... so it's like the flu... but worse. So, like... a bad case of the flu?

You get nausea and the chills as flu like symptoms. Those are the easy parts of it. The rest is different.

Along with shits,Feeling of bugs crawling on your back,Not able to sit still,Keep thinking just one pill and this will all go away

Right, but most of that you don't get with the flu. You puke, shit and sleep.

The worst part is the RLS that never goes away. You'll be dead tired and still not able to sleep cuz of it. Epsom salt baths helps a lot though.

I think the big difference between the flu and withdrawals is wanting to kill yourself, plus knowing that all you need to stop the pain is a bit. I'm not a junky fyi.

With the flu you can just sleep all day. With withdrawal you can't sleep even with Ambien because your body is panicking without the drugs. So it's nearly 24 hours a day for a month where maybe you can sleep two hours in a night. I'll take a month of the flu over 1 week of opiate withdrawal.

And again, I am not defending Artie or any addict by saying this, because it is not an excuse. And Artie is not being held back by this anyway. He's been cycling off of drugs for 22 years now, he's used to it.

doesn't artie just have to wait 24 hours then he can take a subutex and stop the withdrawals? i know he was always talking about taking them when he was on the stern show.

Are you off them for good?

It's about the most similar 2 things can be.

Ever suck dick for a Pokemon trade? I've got a Mewtwo

You're right and I've been through it a few times but it's not bad enough to choose death over.

I agree 100%. I'm not siding with Artie at all. Just saying it's more difficult than OP thinks.

Artie's addiction to drugs has very little to do with him being scared to withdrawal. The guy has enough money to check into rehab and be giving drugs the whole time so the withdrawal is way easier. However as soon as he leaves he going to get high

/u/stinksskc , comment?

That nigga asleep until da late afternoon

'sleeping'

...with other men for dope money?

I honestly hope each and every last one of you faggoty wiggers in here gets raped and killed by a pack of you know whats.

Me too.

One man's trash...

;)

No I don't. A pack of what?

I don't use that word. Never cared for it.

It's okay for you people to use it. It's your word.

That account was banned. He's thundr87 or some shit now.

No I'm not >:(

Yes you are, just accept it.

he needs to get on dat dere kratom

Because it's obvious to everyone he doesn't actually want to quit. He should just do a Stanhope and be open about the fact that he wants to get zooted until he dies.

Exactly. Artie has gone through detox several times, he's used to that. He is still using because he likes getting high and can afford it. And probably thinks his health is already so bad already he should just keep fucking up his nose.

Lmao fuck you, you don't know shit about heroin WD buddy 😡

Nothing mean to say here, lovin SNN

Hi turn thanks for your support buddy :)

Look, opiate withdrawal is no picnic and for some people it's a real motherfucker to bear, everyone gets that aspect of it. But Artie has a fucking deformed nose from his drug abuse. Most people, even addicts, don't reach a point where actual parts of their body start to fall off and rot. If your nose falling off isn't going to stop you nothing will.

I'm not sure if you're pretending to be Jim Norton with that comment

I never mentioned pre-cum or ladyboy penis.

Ya but we know that was all you were thinking about

Touche!

You dont know shit

It’s possible to be actively self destructive and want to live.

Heroin and opiates are for weak faggots.

I'm a former addict and you are absolutely correct.

Agreed. Truth is, the worst kind of withdrawal is actually Kratom withdrawal. Which I'd know, because I do Kratom all the time because I'm fucking badass and not because I'm so autistic that I can't find a heroin dealer due to my inability to communicate with other human beings in real life.

I've been through it 3 times and while you're right about some of the symptoms being similar to flu, it's absolutely more brutal than that.

It also gets worse every time you have to do it.

He's a scared little boy.
