Hello

[Zipperhead]

Fair enough. If they are letting you slip try the Hotline at 1-800-268-7708. Maybe they can pull some strings. Surprised the OSSISS guys didn't help. They were about the best thing that happened for me. Don't look for much from the Military Medical guys. Dead end there really. All I ever got was put on anger management courses. VAC treated me much better. What Base are you closest to?

asdf123...

I'd look for a new forum.
These guys haven't a clue really and most of the stuff they give you can find online.

These guys are idiots who just talk nonsense and bitch about stuff.
And be careful cause there are some really big bad mean Vets who if you sneeze the
wrong way they'll threaten you with sharpened utensils.

Really, go some place else.
I'm trollin here til I get the boot to let the new folk know that these guys dont know shit.
Will treat you like shit and eventually have you wind up back in... you guessed it...SHIT!!

Actually, I was completely lost and had no idea how to deal with my PTSD until I came here. This has been an extremely helpful forum for me the entire time I've been on it, and it's the only place I've ever found any real useful advice from others who have been through what I have and face the same struggles. I really didn't know how I would have coped without the forum and it continues to be my lifeline.

Pay no attention FUBAR. Just someone trying to have fun. He'll be out shortly.

Also happy you are doing a bit better. Nicely done.

Hang tough
Wagon.

Welcome Asdf

Glad you found us. We're all in the same boat. Just tryin' to get by the best we can. As always, it's one step at a time.

Hey Fubar, glad you're doing better. Hang in there.

Wagon and Jarhead are two you should def watch your back around.
Also Angle... he's a knob thinks he knows a lot and talks shit but is just boring.
A woman named JennieMac... watch out for her. She's just bitter and will whine
behind your back. You'll get to know that most of those who contact you on here
are the INNER CIRCLE to Sir Jimmys Regime... there just a bunch of angry men with no lives
who enjoy trying to take the piss out of ppl. Their lives suck so they come on here and
bully like they're back in uniform. but theyre just tired, old worn out. Usually with
nothing quick to say.

But it's your choice... I'd just watch your back when the say they've got your six.

 

[Wagon]

Again. Please ignore jamz post. Probably going to go on for some hours. So please forgive the blather above.

Back to regular programming.

 

[JennyMac]

Wow I made the top three names :)

Welcome to the forum...pay no attention to the retard ...I am sure you can pick him out.

Fellow Canadian here, happy Canada Day!....I have been a member of the forum since March and I can tell you that the people here can give you all kinds of great advice, great direction and lots and lots of info...I can't tell you how many times these guys have bailed my ass out of a shit day....I didn't understand a thing about this when it hit me....have you watched the video here? Link Removed It explained it so well to me...hope it helps you. Take a look around, read as much as you can...there are other ways to help yourself besides pot.

Take care.

asdf,

Welcome brother. Disregard Jamz above, he is just trying to stir shit up. Civility seems to be one of the first things to go when we take a step on the wild side....

I'm glad you found this place, it was a life saver for me. I have been here a little over a year and the roller-coaster was on full throttle when I landed here. Read, read, read man. When you feel like it, have a say, a rant, a bitch, or a joke. The people here do have your back and the info here is second to none.

Again, welcome.

 

[FUBAR1]

I've been meaning to watch it, only got a few mintes in, no excuse except procrastination. My anxiety is a little high right now having quit pot and my Ativan habit cold turkey, and there's just too many memories brought up watching the video right now. will definitely put it on my to-do list though once I've calmed down a bit.

 

[JarHed]

Wow I made the top three names :)

Wow, me too. He spelled my name wrong also.

It's pretty sad actually. I pity you Jamz, you need to seek out some serious help. You can say what you like, you can call me and others names but it doesn't change anything. Do yourself a favor and get some help for yourself. It will benefit you in the long run. The only one you're hurting is you.

Fubar,
I quit ganja cold turkey also, its been 30 days so I know what your feeling.
First week or so mood swings every half hour. Then calm... then certain times of the day or night I would want one.
Like at sunset or during the dead of night or sunrise(wake and bake) I even missed the self analyzing I used to do on pot; to music, the media, videos. Pot is def a different world and a world that can become dangerous for users of it like you and I... because its so widely acceptable. I can't walk from my apt to the store without passing a friend I used to get high with. But when I tell them Im clean they're genuinely proud and happy for me. And that gives me more encouragement.
Til recently Ive only been able to read a whole newspaper front to back... I mean within the last week. So dont fret about the concentration or lack of it. Your mind just has to adjust from all the mind altering it has gone thru.
And now when I read news Im not as angry or objectionable and at times can understand both sides of the argument.
Give it time and if you want to chat you know how to find me.

4 20 aint no longer funny...

peace
jamz
