Thank you for reaching out and sharing your experience-this is a very challenging situation, and you’re showing courage by seeking help. GHB withdrawal can be dangerous and requires medical supervision. While detox centers are often ideal, the emergency department can provide immediate care and connect you with resources, especially if you're experiencing severe symptoms like tremors or other withdrawal complications. Please don't hesitate to prioritize your safety and seek urgent medical care if needed. Regarding your concerns about insurance and probation, many centers can help you navigate these issues confidentially. You might consider contacting a local addiction helpline or support service for guidance tailored to your situation. They can also help you find programs that provide sliding-scale fees or financial assistance. Your health and well-being are critical, and there is help available. Please take the next step to protect yourself, even if it feels difficult right now. You're not alone in this.

@medheads yes tysm I called another er and she told me to go to the er and that they would approve me for detox meaning my ins wld then cover it but tbh she told me all they do for it is Ativan which just sounds as high risk to me

Thank you for updating us. It’s great to hear you’ve reached out to another ER and gotten guidance-taking that step shows real strength. It’s understandable to feel concerned about Ativan or other medications used in detox. These medications are typically prescribed to manage withdrawal symptoms safely under medical supervision, which is crucial because GHB withdrawal can carry significant risks if not treated properly. While it may feel counterintuitive, the controlled use of medications like Ativan in a medical setting is designed to stabilize your system and reduce the risk of complications. I encourage you to trust the healthcare team’s expertise during detox and share your concerns openly with them. They can explain the process in more detail, adjust the plan to make you feel as comfortable as possible, and ensure the approach is tailored to your needs. You’re making the right moves to prioritize your health. Keep taking it one step at a time-you’ve got this, and there’s a path forward to recovery.

@medheads tysm for your response & to be honest I called and the woman at the desk said what They do is give Ativan- that scared me but prob not for the reasons it should but bc I know from years of experience of taking xanax daily (1&1/2 bars nightly to be exact) that my tolerance is extremely high & I know first hand that Ativan is no where near as strong as xanax. It isn't that I'm looking for a high bc I've kicked all habits (I'm 34 and smoked cigarettes from 14 until 30, and meth from 19 until 32, etc) except this ghb habit. Which SUCKS bc I began this one in order to calm down my insanely loud mental chatter when I was getting clean off dope and I found it to help me sleep and calm down my mental state.. which tumble weeded into this problem itself. So, I'm so close to being sober for the first time in my adult life, and I am scared to death about the process bc idk if they will hear me when I tell them this stuff or if they'll see a drug addict. Anyway, I ask how to go about this for ins and on record for anyone with Medicare, if your in need of detox.. u go to the er, and if the dr signs off that you infact do need detox then ins will cover you for it. Hope this helps someone:) But yeah.. so do you think I will suffer much? I have rd horror stories online about how folks almost die in the hospital from this bc the staff didn't listen to them.. etc. Maybe they were not up to date with treatment options? Not really sure. Idk if this helps but, I truly need my fears put to rest in all this before I go.. the hospital is called uab in Birmingham Alabama incase I lucked out enough for someone to call and figure this one out for ya girl- I'm feeling really overwhelmed:(

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and for being such a dedicated viewer of Cracking Addiction! It’s always an honour to hear from a fellow addiction specialist, and I’m glad the content has been helpful in your practice. I appreciate you pointing out the potential issue with how my reactions during the episode might be perceived. To clarify, my nodding was not meant as agreement or endorsement but rather as active listening to allow Zappy to fully share his perspective. That said, I recognise how it could come across as editorialising, and I’ll be more mindful of this in future episodes to ensure that my role as host remains neutral and focused on facilitating balanced discussions. As you rightly pointed out, while ibogaine is a fascinating topic with promising preliminary studies, it’s clear that more robust research and evidence are needed before we can consider it a legitimate or mainstream option. My hope with this episode was to highlight areas where the addiction field could benefit from more exploration and discussion. Your feedback is invaluable and a great reminder of the responsibility we have when discussing such complex topics. Please don’t hesitate to share more insights-I always welcome input from thoughtful professionals like yourself! Warm regards, Dr. Armstrong

Thank you for sharing your story so openly-it takes courage to speak about such a difficult and deeply personal journey. Your experiences with GHB, the way it initially helped you feel "normal," and the challenges you’ve faced in trying to stop, highlight just how complex addiction can be. It’s clear that you’re self-aware and motivated to make changes, which is a powerful first step. GHB withdrawal can be dangerous, as you’ve already noticed. Symptoms like confusion, fever, anxiety, and your difficulty distinguishing dreams from reality suggest previous severe withdrawal episodes. GHB withdrawal can lead to complications like delirium, seizures, or severe mental health effects. This isn’t something you should face alone or without medical guidance. Here are a few things to consider: Medical Supervision is Critical: GHB withdrawal can strain the body and mind. If inpatient care isn’t accessible, look into home-based withdrawal programs that involve close medical oversight. These programs often require support from a trusted adult and frequent check-ins with healthcare professionals. Hydration and Nutrition: Withdrawal can deplete your body’s resources. Staying hydrated, maintaining a simple, nutritious diet, and ensuring you rest as much as possible can help your body recover during detox. Medications: In some cases, medications like benzodiazepines are used under medical supervision to manage withdrawal symptoms. This must only be done with professional guidance, as these drugs can pose their risks. Mental Health Support: Since GHB withdrawal can worsen anxiety and depression, having access to counseling or support groups can make a big difference in coping with the emotional strain. Plan for Aftercare: Detox is just the beginning. Recovery often requires ongoing support through therapy, peer support groups, or relapse prevention strategies. Services like Narcotics Anonymous or local alcohol and drug services in Australia could be valuable. Given your lack of insurance and the added stress from financial and health challenges, I’d recommend reaching out to free or low-cost services in your area. In Australia, organizations like the Alcohol and Drug Foundation (ADF) or DirectLine (1800 888 236) can connect you with resources, even if your situation feels overwhelming. Remember, seeking professional help doesn’t mean you’re weak-it’s a sign of strength and a commitment to a healthier future. You don’t have to face this alone. Take care, and thank you for trusting us with your story. Wishing you strength and support on your journey. Warm regards,

What about online groups?

I doubt they were checking for spike proteins!

watch our new video on Nattokinase

Nattokinase is interesting at this point. Check our newest video

-- When all the machinery of health protocols were rolled out in the scare of covid, the safety factors of veracity and research studies were not being adhered to and were dismissed as individual rights of informed consent denied. Now more than before we must insist for these safeties be done. The greatest strength we may possess is the joy of the Lord, but the love of money steals the worth of our eternal souls from worth to God. It is the age old struggle to love God only or the world only. I do believe the message of salvation overcomes the world's temptation, while putting our hearts , minds, and souls upon a solid foundation. And that is from God, within God, and on the narrow road to love forever where God dwells over all.🎉❤😂😅😊😮

Look into Natokinase

Thank you for raising these critical points-these are essential questions that need to be addressed openly. Half-Life of mRNA: You’re correct that natural mRNA typically has a short half-life, often lasting hours to a day in the cytoplasm. The use of pseudouridine in mRNA vaccines is indeed a deliberate modification to stabilise the mRNA, allowing it to persist longer and produce more spike protein for an enhanced immune response. Pseudouridine and Normal Processes: Pseudouridine does help the mRNA evade the body’s normal cleanup mechanisms, which helps the vaccine's effectiveness but also raises very valid concerns about unintended persistence in the body. Reports, such as the one you mentioned from Japanese investigators, showing vaccine components lingering for months, demand more investigation. Ethical Concerns: Your concern about the pharmaceutical companies’ approach reflects a broader frustration many share about transparency and accountability in vaccine development. The potential for harm underscores the need for ongoing scrutiny and a reassessment of the balance between urgency and safety. This is a complex issue, and your perspective highlights the absolute need for more research, open dialogue, responsibility and transparency from all involved.

Is that an add running before our video?

And still is👍

I never had any cov19 vaccines

Cost me my CAREER, and lost family property as a result. At least I'll be alive in twenty twenty-five!!

true....asking ANY questions, is a crime now....

JFK jnr is now asking all the questions that weren’t allowed, and thank God will be answered!

Arrests are badly needed not questions.

LOL 💉💉💉💉💉

About half of the vaccines given in Brazil were not with mNRA (AZ, Sinovac and Johnson were the remaining vaccines). You cannot draw conclusions about mRNA vaccines from a study in Brazil.

Thank you for sharing your perspective-many people share similar concerns. The rapid vaccine rollout during COVID-19 highlighted the tension between public health goals and commercial interests, and it’s understandable that this has shaken trust in healthcare. You’re right that this distrust is now extending to other vaccines and public health measures, raising questions that deserve honest answers. Transparency and accountability are the only ways to rebuild public confidence. As for politicians, their role in health decisions has often complicated the narrative, and it’s clear we need more evidence-based, apolitical leadership in these matters.

At least there is long term study now being done. Transparency is what we are after.

Yes.. I was there too. Not fun at all. At least in the countryside it was not as bad a lockdown.

what do you mean?

No, no data is being collected, by pharma or governments. To collect data would show the devastating harms.

IT'S CALLED NUREMBERG

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand the animated captions may not be everyone’s favorite style, but we use them to make sure our content is accessible for all viewers-whether they’re watching in a noisy environment, have difficulty hearing, or simply prefer to read along. We appreciate you letting us know how you feel, and we’re always open to exploring new ways to improve our videos. Thanks again for watching and taking the time to comment!

@@medheads To me they are very distracting, so detracting from the message rather than enhancing it. You could ensure that captions are available for those who have issues, which would not force it on everyone. Hope this helps.

I find them very useful, thank you. 😊👍💙

Dr Vandenbosche wrote a whole book on this just a few years ago.
