PeelerSheila@aussie.zone âš1â© âšmonthâ© agoAs a former sufferer of really intense auditory hallucinations, I strongly relate to what youâve said. I had long given up drugs but was still suffering from the voices for ages afterwards. Itâs hard to get people to understand just how real they felt. And so spiteful, mean and negative. Also hard to get some people to understand that itâs strong enough motivation to never go back there and go through that horrifying shit again. The âonce a junkie, always a junkieâ crowd just donât get it at all.

I completely understand. In the end I had to take a med to make it all go away because I was still getting faint whispers upto 18 months after quitting.
Mine werenât too bad when I was sober. It was when I was fucked that they were nasty.
You couldnât pay me enough to touch that shit again. Not for a million bucks.
As for what people think, I have two thoughts about that:
only people I trust a shitload know about my past
if anyone wants to treat me poorly because of my past actions, they can fuck themselves with a giant spikey cactus.
So few people every get clean, and have a normal life. 95% of people that talk shit about addicts, were they to be addicted themselves, would not get clean. Thatâs a statistical fact.
So fuck em. They donât know the strength it takes to escape the hell of using.
