The transcript blends multiple stories that highlight personal struggles with love, addiction, and accountability. Tammy, a mother of college-aged children, uses BJ's Wholesale Club to save money on groceries and gas, framing herself as a "road warrior mom" who values practicality and savings. A deeply emotional confession from a man who abused his wife and led to her death reveals profound guilt over infidelity, emotional neglect, and the unintended consequences of his actions, including a pregnancy with a new partner. Another narrative follows a man’s descent into prescription drug addiction, starting with painkillers and progressing to kratom, detailing the physical and mental deterioration, financial collapse, and ongoing struggle with recovery. His journey underscores how addiction worsens over time, leading to relapses, severe withdrawal, and social isolation. The stories are punctuated by public comments that emphasize accountability, emotional healing, and the importance of seeking professional help. A separate, lighter story involves a man who was r-worded at a party, showing how trauma can be internalized and suppressed, while another shares a painful experience of physical abuse in a romantic relationship, highlighting the lasting emotional damage and need for therapy. These narratives collectively explore themes of regret, self-awareness, and the long path toward redemption, with a strong undercurrent of human vulnerability and the consequences of poor decision-making.
Tammy regularly hauls stuff to her kids at college.

Today we're getting into some very dark
and very disturbing confessions
from a user who makes his wife commit S-word.
Yeah, it's as dark and as heavy as it sounds
to a user who spirals into drug addiction
and details all of the accounts that come with that.
But anyways, I'll quit my yapping
and make sure you sit back, relax,
grab a drink and grab a snack.
And without further ado, let's get into. Internet's Most Disturbing Confessions.
I'm responsible for my wife's S-word.
I'm not a good person.
I'm selfish and I'm heartless
and I don't deserve to continue living.
My wife and I were married for eight years
when she committed S-word.
We were in the midst of a divorce at the time.
I was a terrible husband in every single way possible.
I did not deserve her.
I didn't love her or love her.
I cheated on her.
I lied to her.
I got another woman pregnant.
I strung her along.
I pushed her to the brink.
I did not kill her, but I may as well have.
My wife and I struggled with infertility
and one of the stressors in our marriage
was our inability to have children.
It took years of our lives.
Thousands of dollars and broke our spirits.
My late wife and I both wanted to have a family, desperately.
And when we couldn't, it was incredibly tough.
She coped with it by going into a funk
and internalizing it and becoming depressed.
She lost interest in almost everything in life.
She was not fun to be around
and instead of supporting her like a husband should,
I ignored her.
She was a shell of herself,
from her depression.
I didn't even help her with it.
I just ignored it.
I thought if I acted like it wasn't happening,
it would go away.
I did everything I could to put my mind off of it.
I started to go to the gym daily
just to get away from my wife.
I started to become friendly with a girl
who ran at the same time as me.
Too friendly.
I spent way too much time cultivating a friendship
with another woman
and not enough time helping my wife cope.
She became a distraction from my life
with my wife
and the moments I would spend with her
became the highlight of my day.
After a few months as friends,
we ended up becoming physical.
What I chose to do was despicable.
I was a married man in his 30s.
I took advantage of not only my wife's trust,
but the trust,
and innocence of a young woman.
Everything I did was selfish.
I didn't spend a moment thinking about my wife.
I was only focused on what I wanted.
And I was a crappy cheater on top of that.
I didn't spend a second thinking of the consequences of my actions.
Our relationship resulted in pregnancy.
I've been in therapy for almost a year now.
And my therapist thinks I did what I did
on my own.
I don't think I intentionally tried to get her pregnant,
but I certainly did nothing to prevent it.
When we found out about the pregnancy,
instead of confessing to my wife
and begging her for forgiveness,
I convinced my girlfriend to keep the baby.
I am conflicted to this day
as to what the proper choice would have been.
I have always wanted a child
and my daughter is my everything.
I don't think terminating her
would have been appropriate,
but,
it almost certainly would have prevented
my wife's S-word.
I used my girlfriend.
She was not ready to be a mother.
I wanted a child desperately
and when the opportunity arised,
I convinced a girl
who wasn't sure if she was ready to be a mother
so that she could keep her child.
It wasn't as despicable
as what I did to my wife,
but it was not an honorable thing.
I took her youth from her.
I changed the path
of her life
and brought her into my drama.
She was just a young girl
who fell in love with a liar
and an asshole.
I stole so much from her.
I've done my best to make amends,
but I can't go and undo the past.
If I was a decent human being,
she would be a 22-year-old
looking for her first job
and having fun in school
and my wife would be alive.
Instead, she is about to be
a mother of two
and my wife is dead.
I was never honest with my wife.
My girlfriend was willing
to have an operation
to have the baby removed,
but I could not swallow it.
I promised her I would leave my wife for her
and after some prodding, I did.
I didn't tell my wife
there was another woman,
but she guessed almost immediately.
Even knowing I cheated,
she did not want to leave me.
I still did.
I strung her along
for several months by telling her
maybe we could work things out.
I gave her false hope.
In my effed-up brain,
I did not want my wife to move on.
I wanted to have her
and my girlfriend
and my baby.
I never told her about the pregnancy.
I did my best to keep it a secret.
If she knew from day one,
maybe she would have been able
to cope better.
When she found out,
she told me what kind of effed-up monster
has a child with another woman,
while he is married.
Who does that when their wife is struggling
with not being able to have a children?
It was the single worst thing
anyone can do to her
and I did it to her.
I was her husband.
I was supposed to protect her.
Instead,
I destroyed her.
I could have done more.
I could have listened to her.
I could have been her friend.
Instead,
I ignored her
and acted like she didn't exist.
That was easier
than facing the consequences
of my actions.
My wife committed S-word
ten weeks after my first child was born.
It's been a year and a half
and I still think about her every single day.
I see her every day
when I hold my daughter.
I miss you, Anna.
I'm sorry.
I am a coward,
and a monster.
I should be the one dead
and you should be holding your baby.
Please forgive me.
Ask me anything if you want.
I will try to do
and answer as many posts as I can.
I am engaged to my girlfriend
and our daughter is 20 months old
and we are expecting our second in November.
We are a family of sorts,
but my life has been a struggle.
I am happy with my daughter.
And I would never commit S-word.
She depends on me so much.
But I wish I could
almost every day.
And now let's get into
some of the top comments.
One user says,
you still don't care about your ex-wife.
Half of this entry
was about the 22-year-old
and a quarter about it was about you.
We know more about your fiancé
than we do about your dead ex-wife.
There's very little information about your ex-wife.
little guilt in your words. more more what you should have done less damage if this is not a troll post you are a sociopath
and the op comes back in response and says i think this was one of my concerns after i posted this
that i might come across as a bit too much of poor me that was not my intention i think i wronged
more than just my wife with my actions i negatively impacted the life many people beyond just my wife
i was trying to express regrets about the negative impact i think i've had on my fiance's life a
sociopath lacks a conscience i know there is nothing i can do to convince you that i have a
conscience over a computer screen but i do you cannot begin to imagine the guilt and the shame i
feel over what i've done
and what i'm responsible for and the commenter replies the op again and says it's not about
convincing conscience doesn't just suddenly appear when something irreversible happens
like a death conscience would have entered him before this the part that was particularly
disgusting was the bit about how your wife found out via facebook which meant you were callously
plastering pics in her face and she was like i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna
do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that
updates of your new family not long after divorce if you truly wanted to spare her of the pain
so much so that you couldn't even tell her to her face you could have either blocked her from seeing
these updates and pictures which can easily be done or would have created a completely separate
account to share the happiness of your other family actions speak louder than words there is
authentic gut-wrenching guilt
and there is slightly irritating intellectual guilt it seems like you feel badly because society
says that you should feel badly and not much more i'm guessing it probably feels to you
like a really annoying mosquito bite that won't go away and you're right it won't go away
just my opinion and the op responds again and says
that isn't what happened i was trying to keep the pregnancy a secret there was absolutely
no plastering of pics or updates on my facebook i didn't want anyone to know about the pregnancy
it was partly out of shame and wanting to prevent my wife from being hurt the pregnancy was the
single worst thing i could have done to her she had already been getting hints from someone close
to us and the confirmation was running across a post that a friend of my fiance's put up that
was public she was like i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not
gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that i'm not gonna do that
and there was no mentioning of the baby or our relationship i wasn't out to cause my wife any
undue pain i did but i wasn't actively trying to hurt her i feel bad because i'm responsible for
the death of someone i loved and cared about i don't know why i didn't feel more when the affair
happened my guilt is much more than guilt because of society's expectations i do appreciate your
thoughts though and i hope you enjoyed this video and i'll see you in the next one
like i said earlier i know i won't be able to convince anyone of anything and someone else says
are you happy with your fiance and how does she feel about all of it and the op response and says
i think it's difficult to find happiness when you are responsible for so much pain
i struggle with that sometimes because i feel like i don't deserve to be happy
but we have a good life together i love her and for the most part we are happy together
we don't fight and we have a solid relationship she is an awesome mother and our life is from
the outside at least good i think she has been able to handle things better than i have
she never knew my wife on any personal level so i'm not sure it impacted her as much
and she isn't a traditional other woman in the sense that she wasn't at all gunning for another
woman's heart and she wasn't at all gunning for another woman's heart and she wasn't at all gunning
husband i pursued her and i was the one that made our relationship happen i knew it was wrong and i
still did it so i think almost all of the blame for the affair belongs to me she does feel bad
about what happens but she subscribes the theory that my wife is responsible for her actions and
another user says this was horrible and extremely hard to read you didn't write this because you feel
genuine remorse you feel guilt you need to be pardoned for your sins you show classic signs
of a complete narcissist this whole time you basically shifted the focus on how bad you feel
and how crappy of a person you are because you want sympathy from others you reek of a man-child
who needs constant validation from everyone i hope karma is still serving you harshly for what
you've done because people like you may get a little better at masking and may even reduce
toxic behaviors with therapy and mental health treatment but psychopaths and narcissists
cannot be changed and cured continue to have the life you deserve
i've secretly been a drug addict for years preface i apologize if this post comes across
as excessive
self-indulgent and lengthy believe it or not there is an equally long part two
i hoped that by writing the complete story of my addiction i could achieve catharsis and come to
terms with what has become of my life some background i believe that addictions are
deeply rooted in other issues and thus some background information seems appropriate
ever since i was a child i can recall being affected by the fact that i was addicted to
by significant mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive
disorder. Additionally, many of my peers have speculated that I have Asperger's syndrome,
though I have not been diagnosed with it. Several doctors have even stated specifically
that I do not suffer from this condition. Psychological problems run in the family,
especially depression and anxiety. After middle school, these problems became increasingly
significant, though I did very well in school and graduated as valedictorian. I could sense
that my life was spinning out of control. The summer before senior year of high school,
I developed a profound interest in psychotropic substances. I had few friends and little to do,
so I spent the entire summer in the hospital. I was in the hospital for a long time,
researching compounds and their effects. In the beginning, I was scrupulous when choosing
the substances I would actually take, and I never took anything in a reckless or ignorant manner.
I experimented with and documented the effects of nitrous oxide and about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, 10, 11 different substances.
Number one, I can't mention all of these substances on YouTube. Number two,
I can't even begin to pronounce them, but some notable ones are mushrooms and kratom and
amphetamines. Let's continue. The OP says, I respect that you please do not comment on the
safety of these substances. This list is not intended to serve as an acknowledgement of
which substances I consider safe, and therefore the doses have been omitted. Generally,
I was able to control my drug usage very well. However, I eventually got reckless with the
mushrooms. I told myself that I was taking all these drugs in a quasi-scientific manner,
as it is difficult, if not impossible, to truly understand descriptions of drug effects
without first-hand experience, especially in the case of psychedelics. I felt I needed to
experience the ultimate psychedelic state.
I pursued this goal, even when negative psychological reactions began to manifest.
I increased the dosage from half a gram to a few to even more of rigorously dried mushrooms
over the course of six months and 15 trips. Needless to say, the higher-dose trips,
the two highest being multiple grams, were very difficult to manage. I had some incomprehensibly
troubling experiences, which I had trouble integrating. Though the lower-dose trips were
apparently beneficial, these trips seemed to exacerbate my already unstable psychological
state. I became cognizant of the tenuity of all knowledge and the lack of an objective reality.
The awareness of my own assumptions, biases, and preconceptions was valuable in some respects,
but the uncertainty of everything made me uneasy.
I began to wonder what I was doing, and what I was trying to do. I had no idea what I was doing.
I stopped using drugs and spent the rest of high school and the first two years of college
trying to reassemble the pieces of my shattered ego.
prior to my freshman year of college, I began dating a girl from high school. This was my first
serious intimate relationship. Furthermore, our personalities were antipodal, resulting in
frequent conflict. She was domineering, egotistical, and materialistic, whereas I was
submissive, self-effacing, and intellectual. While I typically was traceable to her demands,
I resented her attempts at control, especially her use of intimacy as implements of manipulation.
If I did something to displease her, intimate satisfaction was withheld. My friends admonished
me for continuing our relationship, but I foolishly believed that I could change her
and finally achieve her.
The one thing I always sought for was a loving relationship, and this imperfect one seemed
to be the best substitute I could obtain. Despite all of the lows, the intermittent
positive experiences kept me hooked. Long before I was addicted to any drug, I had no
problems ceasing mushroom use once I finally attained a peak experience. I was caught up
in an addictive relationship.
Now the stage was set.
It was time for my descent into addiction. For those readers keeping track, I now had
to contend with innate mental health issues, psychedelic-induced psychological instability,
and a frequently unhappy relationship.
The last straw came during the second week of May 2010, after I had completed my sophomore
year as a chemistry student. The relationship between my girlfriend and me had been deteriorating
for two months.
To the point where I was able to continue my addiction.
However, we had not seen each other in over five weeks, despite my attempts at reconciliation.
I finally got her agreed to a Skype call, during which she told me that she had been
sleeping with an older fraternity guy for a month. I was understandably devastated.
I had spent two years fostering our relationship, foregoing friends at my school to drive to
see her. Instead of attempting to begin a new relationship at my college, the logical
alternative, I had spent every weekend with her. Thus, my frequent S-word ideation became
constant S-word ideas.
Being a student of chemistry and pharmacology, the ideal method seemed to be massive drug
OD. I do not know how seriously I contemplated this action, but after two weeks of misery,
I decided something needed to be done.
I had already
tried numerous antidepressants over the previous four years, none of which affected any significant
relief from my mental torment.
I thought day and night about a potential solution. I seemed to be stuck in an eternal
cycle of depression and anger. These thought patterns were reminiscent of the looping thoughts
experienced during psychedelic trips.
I was trapped on the hedonism treadmill, but seemingly powerless to change anything. After
recalling the
positive results of my previous experiences, I decided to try taking them once more. I carefully
considered this decision, agonizing over any possible outcome. I determined that 1. I did
not care if I died of an OD. 2. If I become addicted, I would simply try therapy and commit
S-word if I failed. 3. Any other outcome could
only have desirable ramifications.
So, I made the fateful choice to locate and purchase the narcotic known as, I can't say
the name, but it is a very, very powerful painkiller pill.
Let's continue.
The OP titles the chapter, I guess, "Addiction: The Rise," and continues and says, "During
the time I have described to you , I was consistently
feeling the worst I had ever felt in my entire life up until that point with the exception
of the temporarily limited experience of bad trips."
I would like to emphasize that, knowing all I did about psychoactive substances, the choice
to constantly abuse painkillers was certainly not an easy one. Past experiences were few
and spaced far apart. However, by comparison to "imminent S-word," the alternative of self-punishment,
or self-medication, seemed attractive.
On the basis of the "ask and you shall receive" principle, I approached my morally questionable
neighbor and inquired about painkillers. Coincidentally, he had a solid connection, and thus was able
to buy me however many I wanted for the right price. Of course, which turned out to be one
dollar per pill. I started off by purchasing three.
Tablets. Despite my S-word thoughts, I actually did not want to OD, and so I started with
a reasonable dose of approximately a few tens of milligrams, and I divided the tablet, and
then took the tablet. Initially, I was decidedly underwhelmed. I was expecting a life-changing
euphoria, but instead, I felt only a pleasant warmth.
This feeling was still better than what I had been experiencing, and thus I continued
to abuse the pill. After a few more attempts, I attained the bliss I had been seeking. I
was enveloped in the most beautiful, warm glow, feeling as though I was practically
radiating light and empathy. All of the worries that had once besieged me simply evaporated,
leaving only pure, unadulterated euphoria.
I slipped into a state of diminished awareness, where my mind was filled with colorful visions
of a whimsical and fantastical nature. I could scarcely move. My body was heavy, perhaps
as after an exhausting run or powerful, um, finishing. I noticed that my breathing had
become slowed and intermittent, though this realization did not trouble me. I thought
I could breathe. I felt free to socialize, unafraid of embarrassment or rejection. This
uninhibited socialization was utterly foreign to me, even under the influence of alcohol.
I remained painfully self-conscious. This new painkiller allowed me to openly express
myself while remaining almost perfectly lucid, in reasonable doses, providing a major incentive
to continue my abuse. At the time, it appeared that I had discovered the secret to happiness.
For $40 a day, I could enjoy a pleasure greater than intimacy and socialize like everyone
else. I calculated how long I could sustain the joyride. Based on the cost per day and
the money in my savings account, which was significant as I rarely had to spend money
to do things, of course, there was no one factor I failed to account for sufficiently:
the inevitable tolerance which developed with prolonged use. I had anticipated a constant,
gradual increase, but the reality was harshly different. Within three weeks, using four
times per week, my preferred doses had doubled. Nevertheless, at this stage, I was still able
to maintain intense euphoria simply by increasing the dose, a luxury which was also lost over
time. As anyone familiar with addictions knows, this state of affairs was hopelessly
unsustainable. Eventually, my usage would increase to a point that would be too costly
to support. I would then either quit or find a "novel" way to support my habit. One month
from my first dose, however, this time was strenuous. I would have to give in to the
fear that I was still a long ways off.
With my newfound confidence, I was able to find a girl to begin dating from one of my
chemistry classes. She seemed primarily concerned with physical intimacy, which was fine by
me. I was especially pleased to discover that she was strongly submissive, exactly the opposite
of my previous girlfriend. With my drug-fueled confidence, I finally got a taste of what
a satisfying, intimate relationship was. In just one month, the pill had completely
revolutionized my life. I went from feeling like a depressive, S-word loser to a sexy,
outgoing stud. Everything wasn't perfect, obviously. While the afterglow was still significant,
leaving me content even the day after using, I noticed that I had a significant depression
after two days without the pill. There was also the hassle of meeting my contact and
paying for the substance. Nonetheless, these all seemed like minor inconveniences,
considering the benefits I had realized from regular dosing.
Besides, there was a simple solution to the creeping depression.
More frequent dosing.
I began dosing every other day.
Then every day.
Then multiple times every day.
I wasn't too concerned because the semblance of withdrawal was manageable,
and I continued to have a significant cash reserve.
More seriously, I moderately OD'd on one occasion.
While I did not pass out, I became increasingly dizzy.
Nauseous, I usually had no issues with nausea, even at high doses, and confused.
Unlike my first dangerously high dose, I had no colorful visions and no euphoria.
I felt like I was constantly about to faint, even standing up,
and it took all of my willpower to retain.
I would not feel the need to breathe for a minute,
and then constantly gasp for air.
Obviously, this incident was rather disturbing.
Nevertheless, the good times continued to roll.
I had an amazing 4th of July and loved going to the beach and basking in the sun
while my body was blissfully warm and numb.
At home, I no longer felt imprisoned, but was content to rest.

Relax and listen to music.
Particularly hard rock such as
Led Zeppelin. Or play
video games. Appropriately enough
Oblivion. One of my
more embarrassing yet sensually
gratifying experiences
or activities after large doses
was lying on a
velvet blanket while dragging it across
my bare skin. I no
longer craved intimacy
with anyone else. I could
achieve more pleasure
non-intimately by my
self. Unfortunately
the honeymoon phase was
finite. I began to
become concerned after I went on
vacation for four days with my family.
I decided to test
myself by not bringing any drugs
on the trip. Just to ensure that
I could still be happy without them.
By the end of the first
day I noticed the
onset of a psychological
withdrawal symptom.
I was constantly thinking about
how I could obtain some pills.
Perhaps there was a bar I could go to
where someone was selling them. Or maybe
I could find some on the beach and identify
them online. Or maybe
my thoughts of the high
were ceaseless. Though
I was certainly disturbed by
these manifestations of my
developing addiction.
I purchased more pills
the first day I got home.
Three weeks later
reality was quickly
setting in. And I had
only a couple of weeks of summer vacation
remaining. I resolved
to immediately stop all drug use.
And so I did.
There was no physical withdrawal
just the same psychological symptoms
mentioned previously.
Once I got back to college
it became clear that staying
sober would be a daunting
task.
I had to complete large amounts of work
as well as confront
my paucity of friends.
The mental health issues I suffered
with before beginning
the drug use resurfaced.
Though my summertime glimpse of
normalcy had dampened them
somewhat. Because the withdrawal
was not terribly difficult
I foolishly decided to
resume my pill habit once
more. This mistake
cost me dearly.
As that previous kick
was to be the last time I could
quit without physical
withdrawal symptoms.
Addiction.
The fall.
After a month of using
it was now the end of October.
And my bank balance was
finally dwindling to a
concerning level.
Additionally, I had increased
my dosage to over
100mg each
day. And as a
result experienced some very
negative highs.
After an especially large dose
I became horribly
confused. Unlike
the pleasant nod I
once had, I had experienced
disorientation with
little euphoria.
My breathing was erratic
and I would suddenly gasp
for air after not breathing
for long periods of time.
Though I don't want to believe I
completely lost consciousness
I would fade into a
dreamlike state where I thought I was
doing something else.
Such as getting a drink of water.
I would physically
act out my dream.
For example, by lifting my
hand to my mouth, then regain
awareness and realize I
was actually just lying in
bed. I had trouble
remembering trivial details about
myself and had no sense
of time. I was also
irrationally scared and
I believed I would be imminently
harmed by some malevolent force.
This confusion
and macabre emotion lasted
for six hours. It's worth
mentioning that the constipation
was also horrendous.
Sometimes necessitating
bathroom breaks over an hour
long. I could sense that I
was quickly losing any control
of my drug usage.
I desperately wanted to
stop as the drawbacks
were beginning to outweigh the benefits.
I figured the psychological
withdrawal would be a small
price to pay for averting
potential disaster.
When I ceased using this time,
however, the withdrawal
had a physical component as
well. I had moderate
flu-like symptoms
including runny nose,
watery eyes,
muscle aches, goosebumps,
fever, chills,
diarrhea, sweating,
and restless legs.
I had never endured
a physical withdrawal and I
was greatly alarmed that I
had become physically dependent
on drugs.
The psychological symptoms were also
worse, with significant
depression, anxiety,
and even time dilation.
After four days,
the symptoms finally
subsided, and I even
experienced a euphoria,
sometimes known as the pink
cloud. I was elated
to be free of my increasingly
burdensome addiction.
Tragically, things did not
end there, and I deeply
regret my subsequent
choices.
I was dumped by my summertime
lover, and resumed
dating my ex-girlfriend from
high school. The stress of
this relationship, along with
that of coursework, was getting
to me. I began running, as
I had read that exercise is
very beneficial for sober
addicts. I was able to stay
sober until the end of
December. At the beginning of
winter break, I was so
bored, as nothing was as
interesting sober as it was on
drugs. I was watching a show
which I had loved watching
high. My cravings were
immediately triggered. I
tried to resist, but I
couldn't help doing it one more
time, especially after being
clean for so long.
I expected the euphoria
to be like that was
at the beginning of my
drug usage, but
disappointingly, that was not
the case. Despite the
lack of intense euphoria,
my love of drugs
resurged. I had
intended to take pills only
once, but my weakness
got the best of me.
I took it every day during
winter break, and
continued doing so for over a
month back at college.
By now, my doses were
reaching upwards of
120 milligrams,
and the habit was having
devastating financial consequences.
I once again tried to
to quit, and predictably, my withdrawal was even worse.
the restless legs were especially brutal I didn't sleep more than an hour a night for two weeks
but I managed to continue to attend class and complete my assignments I was now suffering
almost unbearable symptoms physically as well as mentally I knew I was in deep but after the
symptoms finally subsided I relapsed again within a couple of weeks I was greatly discouraged by
these pathetic failures in order to pay for the exorbitant costs I had spent my entire 5,000
tuition refund I will not explain the shameful methods by which I obtained such refund about a
month later after using 180 milligrams per day I mustered the courage to endure the torturous
withdrawal once more in addiction to the greatly exaggerated withdrawal symptoms
something
else was disturbingly different about this withdrawal after two weeks I still felt very
far from normal I was having trouble sleeping more than four hours a night and I was very
depressed and anxious even an additional week provided little improvement instead of the four
day withdrawal I once had I now felt horrible even three weeks after stopping this realization
led to yet another relapse when I
tried to quit again a couple months later in April I determined I needed a different approach I went
to a rehab clinic and after the request 24 hours in withdrawal I was given my dose to help I expected
to feel normal but the withdrawal did not abate significantly I thought about trying a stronger
pill but didn't however when I told my doctor he was incredulous and accused me of lying I tried to
explain that I had resisted the urge but I wondered how they would be able to tell this from the urine
sample since the pill from two days ago would likely still be present this comment led to a
severe berating though I eventually got my dose appalled by this condescending attitude I left
with my pill tablets never to return knowing the pharmacology of whatever pill I had I realized that
the few milligrams I had was an excessive and senseless dose the chemical inside this pill
acts as a high affinity mixed agonist antagonist it has a ceiling effect and high doses only serve
to block the receptor in your brain clinically this is useful patients are prevented from abusing
their drug of choice I will admit the possible role of the chemical for the sake of brevity
the result of all this jargon is that I knew I could take one milligram without it being too
much weaker than the multiple milligram dose thus I was able to extend three days of the pill into
three weeks of it without much discomfort after the first few days I did not even notice the
drastic dosage drop which never would be the case with full agonist drugs like the pill the
rationale was that I was out of college for the summer after those three weeks so I could focus on
quitting I also tapered the dosage which is easier with long acting drugs valiantly I stopped taking
the pill after only a few days out of school I was determined not to fall into a complacent usage
pattern as I had done before this withdrawal was hell on Earth I was drenched in sweat writhing on
my bed for a week straight unable to sleep at all there was no respite from the misery
even some other medicine failed to provide solace I was still feeling physically ill
and hopeless by the third week the withdrawal seemed never ending a perception no doubt
bolstered by the extreme time dilation I experienced I was completely depressed
I felt as though I would never experience any happiness again and certainly nothing
bearing any semblance to euphoria the S word ideations had also returned and they were as
bad as ever I was result on not returning to drug use and I scarcely had the funds to do so
I was looking for anything to alter my state of mind I came across a bag of kratom for months ago
that is how I maintained the addiction for nearly an additional two years
for those who have never heard of kratom it is a tree from Southeast Asia that contains alkaloids
which act as a um something mu receptor agonist as well as many other alkaloids with various activities
some of which seem to mitigate addiction to some extent I did not expect much but a tea made from
this material provided nearly complete relief of my symptoms shockingly this relapse did not result
in exacerbated symptoms once the drug wore off with the pill even if I took only one dose after
being cleaned for a month I would experience intense withdrawal symptoms it seemed like a miracle but
this was also too good to be true after taking it for two months I had a severe withdrawal upon
stopping I resigned myself to using kratom indefinitely and that's what I did from June
2011 until the present day I have taken dried ground kratom every single day this dosage I'm
taking is extremely high but makes sense when compared to
to the other pills and painkillers I was taking daily at my peak kratom is also much cheaper than
prescription painkillers which is what allowed my uninterrupted habit the withdrawal is also not as
intense but it is still severe enough to keep me using it has some drawbacks however kratom
is quite short-acting and thus I need to dose many times per day it also is a pain to make
and an even bigger pain to toss and wash the dry powder the tea tastes very bitter and the
powder is likely to induce horrendous gagging if swallowed improperly therefore kratom cannot be
used as easily as prescription painkillers on many occasions though I've made the tea in public without
attracting too much attention if you saw someone making what was apparently matcha with a coffee
press perhaps on an airplane
at the movies in the mall Etc it could have been me while using kratom I graduated from college with
a BS degree with a GPA over 3.7 and maintained my tumultuous relationship with that same girl from
high school however that is not to imply that the addiction has not had serious consequences
I've been out of college for almost a year with no job I cannot leave the house for
extended periods of time because of the rapid onset of withdrawals
the reason I don't have a job my friends many of whom I met only because of my painkiller confidence
are worried I am penniless because I need to spend all my money on kratom and my loans are delinquent
thus I once again would like to attempt to quit and that is why I have written this post
I would like to see where I've been in order to avoid the same mistakes in the future I know this
path will not be easy but you don't realize how strong you are until strong is your only option
sorry if I butchered that quotation if anyone has read my entire story I sincerely thank you for
taking that time to do so even if you have not read everything please comment and share your
opinions with me I highly value others experiences since I fully acknowledge the limitations of my
understanding success stories are especially encouraged
finally I'd be glad to answer any questions you might have for example no I was not on amphetamine
or any other drug besides kratom when I wrote this I rarely take anything besides my usual kratom doses
and then also in the tldr the opi adds some extra details and says I'm sick of all the
crap I've done because of my addiction I've stolen pills obtained money through dishonest means lied to
friends and family and even taken pills that I scraped up off the bathroom floor I hope I can
put this behind me and lead a normal honest life I regret that some seem to be disappointed by the
lack of a dramatic ending the conclusion may seem anti-climatic because I never turned to serious H
use my connect fell through before I received my first bundle got arrested slash incarcerated held
up a pharmacy OD'd and was saved solely by uh one of my friends or as per Pulp Fiction adrenaline
injection Etc however I believe this
illustrates an important aspect of addiction in contrast to the swift dramatic consequences of
drug use often portrayed on television real addictions are often more subtle though they
may very well destroy one's life in the end the damage usually happens gradually thus one may be
complacent and not recognize the seriousness of the issue until it is too late i personally was

5979 not aware that i had lost control until long after i became addicted when in doubt stop
and now let's get into some of the top comments one user says okay i will lay out some truth for
you but you might not be ready to hear it you are a drug addict you need to become comfortable with
this notion you're not a physical addict or any other bs you're a full-blown chronic addict
you're not just a pill addict you are addicted to changing your mental state
to blunt unwanted feelings and sadly you are an addict for life the good news is that you can
overcome this and there are plenty of people who will help you i am an addict i've gone on a path
similar to yours i was on pills for two years and the withdrawal was more awful than i can say
yes i got there through pills i really believe that you need to be honest with your family and
go to rehab you've already discovered that getting physically clean doesn't get you far
when you don't tackle the mental game i'm not an aa fanatic i believe you do whatever
necessary to get real recovery i almost lost my son because of this disease
what i do is see a therapist every week occasionally i will go to an aa meeting that
i like and i will willingly do random drug testing and have the results sent to my ex-wife
but this is my path yours will be totally different i wish you all the luck in the world
you can dm me and i will be happy to help in any way that i can and the op response and says
thank you for your sincere words of encouragement and inspiration one of the reasons i made this
post was to force myself to face up to what i've done so that i can hopefully confess to my family
next i feel that emotional support is invaluable in all of my previous attempts to quit my
girlfriend one of the few who knows of my problem has been less than understanding and thus
exacerbated my depression i even regretted divulging my secret
to her as she has threatened to blackmail me on several occasions i believe that my family members
will be more helpful as i strive towards sobriety and someone else says thanks for taking the time
to share this it's not easy to be a human being in this world especially an intelligent and
sensitive one so many people try to find ways to cope be it with pills or alcohol or caffeine or
intimacy you are not alone in the struggle
and we have never heard from the op ever again but this was posted 14 years ago so i really hope
that the op was able to you know kick this horrible horrible drug addiction and get sober
get healthy and be happy
i 27 male was drugged and r-worded by a man a couple nights ago and i don't care
i was at a party a couple of nights ago i had gotten there at 7 pm and had two beers during my
stay i've had some addiction problems in the past and i'm pretty close to being clean now
hence the reason i only had two beers it was around 1 a.m and i was sitting in the living
room watching nathan for you with this guy i had met earlier that night he was a pretty cool dude
and he liked nathan for you so we hit it off pretty quick so we are watching tv and i'm not
going to be watching tv and i'm not going to be watching tv and i'm not going to be watching tv
all of a sudden he starts to come up to me he asked me if i've ever considered having intimacy
with a man to which i responded sorry man but i'm into women but i also told him that i'm completely
fine with his intimate orientation and that it did not affect my ability to have a friendship
with him he backs off with his flirting and we continue to watch tv after about 20 minutes or so
he asked me if i want another drink since i was
completely sober at this point i said sure he brought me a vodka tonic i took a few sips
and i noticed that i was getting a lot more drunk than usual and i was really wobbly that is the
last thing i remember i woke up the next morning in the guest room with a crushing headache and i
noticed that my jeans were pulled down barely past my ass i don't want to be crude but my butt was
very sore it felt like i had a cold for some reason my throat was very sore and every time i
coughed to try and clear the phlegm it caused me to uh i'm not even gonna read it but basically
he his butt hurts a lot i realized that i had been r-worded i pulled up my pants and left the house
i got in my car and drove back to my apartment i didn't really feel anything i'm not sad
or angry i don't feel anything at first i thought it was just shock but it's been three days and i
still don't really care almost like it didn't affect me at all i went to the doctor yesterday
to get my butt looked at and to get a std screening i suffered a fissure because of
forced entry i'm still waiting on the std results
at
it i visited the police the std test was inconclusive and i will have to return at another
time and now let's get into some of the top comments one user says so i have ptsd the i don't
care thing you're talking about sounds a lot like you're experiencing something called disassociation
victims of trauma do this subconsciously and without control in order to cope with the traumatic
event i would make an appointment to at least see a therapist to talk about this when the
disassociation eventually wears off your mind has decided to not completely process this event
they can help you do that and another user says it sounds like you do care but that you don't
allow yourself to care it sounds to me that you are defending yourself from your own feelings by
acting cold about it i do it too and it is not helpful
you need to go to the police if not for you then for the next victim if he is the kind of person
who would drug you and r-words you he could easily do it to someone else you owe it to yourself and
any other future victim that he may not end up being convicted of anything since it's been a few
days and most of the proof is probably gone by now but if he ever r-words someone else and they
decide to report it then it's recommended that you go to the police if not for you then for the
records will show that he was accused of it before and that will help the next person
i am so sorry to hear what has happened to you and the op comment and says i went to the police
and another user says if you're writing this on reddit you probably do care about what happened
deep down you should totally sue him go to the police i know it's super hard because of the
shame you might feel but he's the only person who should be ashamed of himself
My best friend has been R-warded two years ago in a similar situation.
she also didn't feel anything like nothing had happened for the first month she blamed herself
for what happened and could not accept it she told me the guy slipped a pill in her drink
that she only remembers a few horrible scenes from the night before that she woke up with bruises and
pains everywhere but she kept trying to convince herself that she was dreaming it or it never
happened she wanted to take the pill nothing to worry about numbness our ward victims have a hard
time accepting it i have not been able to convince her to go to the police this guy started following
and threatening us both not to sue him i eventually did it after one year for the both of us
that's when my friend started to see a psychologist and really started understanding
what happened and healing a little must be so much harder in your situation being a man
the person who did this
to you is human trash and needs to be punished you deserve to be refunded for what you're going
through even just to pay your medical exams and psychotherapy and he deserves to be in jail
suppressing your feelings isn't always the right thing to do and it can be freaking exhausting
i hope this helps you a little hugs from italy and the opie responds and says i'm bothered by
the fact that i'm not eliciting a proper emotional response to the fact
that i was unwillingly effed in the butt that's why i shared it on reddit sometimes
writing something down and getting other people's perspective on it can help you heal and another
user says jesus that's horrible have you considered at least reporting him the man is a full-on
predator and r-wordist he should be locked up it does happen to women as well that they don't feel
bad or anything after being r-worded and as you can't remember the experience of being an r-wordist
experience i'm sure that helps but i'd still report him and the opie responds and says i went
to the police and reported him i didn't know his last name though so there isn't much they can do
unless someone else reports a man with the same name and description and the person responds back
to the opie and says nobody at the party knows the guy the host of the party and the opie responds
and says i didn't actually know anyone at the party i went there with a tinder date
but that didn't really work out and she left around 9 p.m because she had work in the morning
first date speak for your personality is so deplorable that i wouldn't even hate fu to save
my own mother so there i was at a party full of complete strangers that my only connection to
was that they were my failed tinder dates friends friends chances are i'd never see any of these
people again in my life so i decided that i would stay and see what happens i have a profound
interest in drunk people and it's even more interesting when you yourself are sober they'll
tell you their deepest secret and not even think twice about it i asked this incredibly wasted man
at the party if he was sad about anything to which he responded that he was upset that his
girlfriend wouldn't participate in his diaper interest with him i don't use this information
in any sort of nefarious way it's just an interesting experiment on human
sociology it helps me with my writing as well allows me to create more complex characters
with unknown motives i don't know why any of that was necessary to answer your question tldr didn't
know anyone i physically abused my girlfriend i never thought i would be writing something like
this but here i am i used to think it was disgusting
how someone could abuse their wife girlfriend or loved one until i did it myself well i met
my girlfriend in my second year of college she was a year younger than me and a really nice girl
quirky really pretty long black hair bubbly and a very entertaining person to be around
i could tell she liked me from my limited interaction with her in one of our common classes
to cut a long story short she
really liked me and we hit it off eventually we started dating everything was fine for the first
six to seven months and then it all went down the drain the thing is i was always a very egoistic
aggressive and my way or the highway type of person deep down i grew up in a very rich family
and played football in school and in college just used to getting my way with everyone
i know it's terrible but please let's go on we started disagreeing on little things and from
there on it eventually escalated one day we had a huge fight in which i abused her
and said really hurtful things on text she cried a lot and said she wanted to speak to me
we spoke and she basically gave in to everything i wanted which was unreasonable af but i got my way
again she really liked me so she kind of let me control her
in that way a couple of weeks later we fought over the same thing and i lost all effing control
i will not go into details sorry but i abused her she then said something that was hurtful and it
got to me in the heat of the moment i just lost it again i abused her again and this time she
started crying on the floor she did not get up and just laid there crying then a few minutes later
it hit me what i had done and i was in utter shock i felt broken and effing disgusted at myself
i as a grown-up man had beaten a 5'4 tall woman who was 130 pounds lighter than me and a foot
shorter she was on the floor and crying bruised all over she ran away from my apartment and i just
sat there fast forward to the end of the night and i was like i'm gonna die i'm gonna die i'm gonna die
i'm gonna die i'm gonna die i'm gonna die i'm gonna die i'm gonna die i'm gonna die i'm gonna die
eight months later i still think about this almost every day i cannot get the image of her
lying on the ground and crying outside of my head i feel ashamed sad and disgusted i cry a lot and
wonder how i ever broke such a sweet little girl's heart and soul like that i just saw the news about
kareem hunt abusing that woman and kicking her then it hit me all like a truck today and i felt
pressed again i think about it every effing day and feel absolutely terrible i manipulated her
abused her and treated her feelings like effing crap all because i knew she would let me take
advantage of her because she really liked me i feel ashamed of myself i am so sorry
s and now let's get into some of the top comments one user says so i just
want to be the tough love person here and say you have got to go get professional help
sure you feel bad now but if you don't dramatically change course you will do this to another girl
she did nothing to deserve physical violence so don't try to say this with some kind of special
circumstance you are a threat to any future relationship until you make some big changes
the choice is yours another user says
if you haven't apologized to the girl yet then you should it won't change everything you did to her
but it may bring closure and the op responds and says i did apologize but she said she will never
forget what i did and she cannot forgive me for it and someone responded and said understandable
