So they tell me i have to quit smoking pot because theyve decided its bad for me. So i havent since the 1st and its not that bad except late at night when im here alone. How do people go thru life without drugs or alcohol anyway? Stuck alone in my head with overwhelming thoughts and no way to blunt them. Oh hey we are going to add lots of stressful activities to your day and take away the only way you can relax. No worries tho if you dont listen to us we will ship you out to a hospital and commit you. Anxiety meds? Naw you would just abuse them like the pot, none for you. Im flip flopping all over the place tonight from pissed to depressed and sad to so angry im foaming at the mouth to crying. I want to ask them if the point of life is to be happy why are they taking my happy drug away? Theyd probably commit me for asking such a thing blah blah blah. How long does alcohol stay in your system anyway? Could i at least drink on friday nights? As they are testing my urine at the day treatment randomly, would it leave my urine before say the monday? I need some escape from this crazy world.

Shaymus, I'm sorry for what you're having to go through... Heavens knows I have to go through random drug testing and breathalizer tests weekly, sometimes several times a week. You'll get through it, I promise.
![]() Alcohol doesn't show up on a breathalizer test after no longer than 8 hours. It can take up to 48 hours before it leaves enough to not show up on urine tests. It all goes with how much you urinate, how much you drank and how much has left your system by eating, drinking other fluids, etc, etc.

Shaymus, try to stay in your body and let the feelings pass. Do active things when your mind is making you crazy. Pick up something to do that will distract you. Exercise. I am sorry this is happening and i wonder if "they" are indeed correct, pot is messing with your mind and when it's gone you will start feeling better. Now, this may sound really weird and I haven't ever seen it written but ginger relaxes me. I drink it in hot water. Good luck bud.

Life is back again to somewhat normal thankfully. I jumped thru all their hoops just fine. Im done with day treatment and the random urine tests. Im done with everything i think except the case manager part and im going to make a call(maybe) and see if i cant fire her before i meet her as thats what the social worker said at d.t..
My therapist said i should choose either an anxiety med or pot but using both would be not good. So uhh i chose the pot ![]() Anyway im ALMOST all the way back in recovering my mind. Things arnt so chaotic anymore. Tho i wonder if that is because i have less time to think or if its just me coming out of the long tunnel i was in. The good news is im down to just effexor now and im going to be very wary of adding anymore on. |

It's good to hear from you Shay. I was wondering how things were going with you. Im glad things are improving and that you are extricating yourself ok from the mental health network.
