Umlutha wam kwiBenzos Kwakunzima ukuKoyisa kuneHeroin

Umxholo

• Ukufana phakathi kwesifo se-opioid kunye ne-benzo
• Ukusukela ukuleqa ii-benzos ukubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo

I-Benzodiazepines efana neXanax inegalelo kwii-opioid overdoses. Yenzeka kum.

Sibona njani iimilo zehlabathi esizikhethele zona- kunye nokwabelana ngamava anyanzelisayo kunokubangela ukuba siphathane ngcono. Lo ngumbono onamandla.

Ukuvuka kwam kwi-heroin yam yokuqala, ndangena emanzini kwindawo ebanda kakhulu. Ndeva izibongozo zesithandwa sam, ilizwi lakhe lindikhwaza ukuba ndivuke.

Ngokukhawuleza amehlo am avulekile, wandiphakamisa ngaphandle kwebhafu wandisondeza. Bendingakwazi nokushukuma, wandithwala wandisa e-futon yethu, wandomisa, wandinxibisa iipyjama, wandisongela ngengubo endiyithandayo.

Sothukile, sithe cwaka. Nangona ndandisebenzisa iziyobisi ezinzima, ndandingafuni ukufa ndineminyaka engama-28 kuphela ubudala.

Xa ndalaqaza, ndothuswa yindlela indlu yethu ePortland ecoceke ngayo eyayiziva ngathi yindawo yolwaphulo-mthetho kunekhaya. Endaweni yevumba lesiqhelo le-lavender kunye nesiqhumiso, umoya wawunuka ngathi ngumhlanzo kunye neviniga yokupheka iheroin.

Itafile yethu yekofu yayihlala inezinto zobugcisa, kodwa ngoku yayizele ziisirinji, amacephe atshisiweyo, ibhotile ye-benzodiazepine ebizwa ngokuba yiKlonopin, kunye ne-baggie ye-tar heroin emnyama.

UMark wandixelela ukuba emva kokuba sidubule i-heroin, ndiyekile ukuphefumla ndaza ndaba luhlaza okwesibhakabhaka. Kwakufuneka athathe amanyathelo ngokukhawuleza. Kwakungekho xesha le-911. Wandinika ifoto ye-opiate overdose yokuguqula iNaloxone esiyifumene kutshintshiselwano lwenaliti.

Kutheni ndigqithe? Sasisebenzisa ibhetshi efanayo yeheroin ngaphambilana ngaloo mini kwaye silinganise ngononophelo idosi yethu. Uxakiwe, wajonga itafile, wandibuza, "Ukhe wathatha iKlonopin kwangoko namhlanje?"

Khange ndikhumbule, kodwa kufuneka ndibenayo - nangona bendisazi ukuba ukudibanisa iKlonopin neheroin kunokuba yindibaniselwano ebulalayo.

Omabini la machiza ayinkqubo yoxinzelelo lweemvakalelo, ngenxa yoko ukuwathatha kunye kunokubangela ukusilela kokuphefumla. Ngaphandle kwale ngozi, abasebenzisi abaninzi be-heroin basathatha i-benzos isiqingatha seyure ngaphambi kokudubula i-heroin kuba inefuthe lokudibana, iqinisa ephezulu.

Nangona ukugqithisa kwamayeza kwakusoyikisa, saqhubeka nokusebenzisa. Saziva singenakoyiswa, kwaye sikhuselekile kwiziphumo.

Abanye abantu babulawa kukudlula ngaphezulu - hayi thina. Qho xa ndicinga ukuba izinto azinakuba mbi, sasihla saya kubunzulu obutsha.

Ukufana phakathi kwesifo se-opioid kunye ne-benzo

Ngelishwa, ibali lam liqhelekile.

IZiko leLizwe lase-U.S. LokuSetyenziswa gwenxa kweziyobisi (i-NIDA) lafumanisa ngo-1988 ukuba iipesenti ezingama-73 zabasebenzisi be-heroin basebenzise i-benzodiazepines amaxesha amaninzi ngeveki ngaphezulu konyaka.

Indibaniselwano ye-opiates kunye ne-benzodiazepines inegalelo ngaphezulu kweepesenti ze-30 ze-overdoses zamva nje.

Kwi-2016, isilumkiso malunga neengozi zokudibanisa la machiza mabini. Endaweni yokukhanyisa kwezi ngozi, iindaba zosasazo zihlala zibek 'ityala kwi-heroin ene-fentanyl. Kwakubonakala ngathi kukho indawo kuphela yobhubhani omnye kumajelo eendaba.

Ngombulelo, iingxelo zosasazo zisandula ukuqalisa ukwazisa malunga nokufana phakathi kwesifo se-opiate kunye ne-benzodiazepine.

Isincoko samva nje esikwi- Ijenali eNtsha yaseNgilani yoNyango ilumkisa ngeziphumo ezibulalayo zokusebenzisa gwenxa i-benzodiazepine nokusetyenziswa gwenxa. Ngokukodwa, ukusweleka okubangelwa zi-benzodiazepines kuye kwanda ngokuphindwe kasixhenxe kule minyaka ingamashumi amabini idlulileyo.

Kwangelo xesha, imigqaliselo ye-benzodiazepine iye yaphakama, nge.

Nangona i-benzodiazepines efana neXanax, iKlonopin, kunye neAtivan zikhobokisa kakhulu, zikwasebenza kakhulu ekunyangeni isifo sokuwa, unxunguphalo, ukuqaqanjelwa bubuthongo kunye nokususwa kotywala.

Xa ii-benzos zaziswa kwii-1960s, zafunyanwa njengechiza elingummangaliso kwaye zahlanganiswa kuluntu oluqhelekileyo. I-Rolling Stones yade yabhiyozela ii-benzos kwingoma yabo yowe-1966 ethi “Mother's Little Helper,” nto leyo ibanceda ukuba baziqhelelanise.

Ngo-1975, oogqirha bafumanisa ukuba i-benzodiazepines ibilikhoboka lotywala. I-FDA ibachonge njengezinto ezilawulwayo, icebisa ukuba i-benzodiazepines isetyenziswe kuphela ukusuka kwiiveki ezimbini ukuya kwezine ukunqanda ukuxhomekeka komzimba kunye nokulutha.

Ukusukela ukuleqa ii-benzos ukubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo

Ndamiselwa rhoqo i-benzodiazepines iminyaka emithandathu, nangona ndandinyanisekile koogqirha bam malunga nembali yam yotywala. Ukufudukela kwam ePortland, ugqirha wam omtsha wezifo zengqondo wandinika i-cocktail yenyanga yeepilisi kubandakanya i-30 Klonopin yokunyanga uxinzelelo kunye ne-60 temazepam yokunyanga ukulala.

Nyanga nganye usokhemesti wajonga isiliphu esikhutshiweyo kwaye wandilumkisa ukuba la mayeza ayindibaniselwano eyingozi.

Bekufanele ukuba ndimamele usokhemesti ndiyeke ukuthatha iipilisi, kodwa ndiyayithanda indlela ebendenza ndizive ngayo. I-Benzodiazepines igudise imiphetho yam: ukucima iinkumbulo ezibuhlungu zokuxhatshazwa ngokwesondo kunye nokuhlaselwa kunye nentlungu yokuqhekeka.

Ekuqaleni, ii-benzos zayicima kwangoko iintlungu noxinzelelo lwam.Ndayeka ukothuka ndaza ndalala iiyure ezisibhozo ebusuku endaweni yesihlanu. Kodwa emva kweenyanga ezimbalwa, baphinda bazicima iinkanuko zam.

Umfana endithandana naye wathi: “Kufuneka uyeke ukuthatha iipilisi. Uliqokobhe lakho, andazi ukuba kwenzeke ntoni kuwe, kodwa ayinguwe lo. ”

I-Benzodiazepines yayiyinqanawa ye-rocket eyayindazisa kwindawo endiyithandayo: ulibele.

Ndathulula amandla am "ndileqa inamba." Endaweni yokuya kwimics evulekileyo, ukubhala iindibano zocweyo, ukufundwa, kunye neminyhadala, ndicwangcise iindlela zokufumana iibenzos zam.

Nditsalele ugqirha umnxeba ndimxelela ukuba ndiya eholideyini kwaye ndifuna iipilisi zam kwangethuba. Xa umntu eqhekeza imoto yam, ndaye ndachaza ukuba iipilisi zam zibiwe ukuze ndiphinde ndizaliswe. Yayibubuxoki obu. Ibhotile yam yeebenzos ayishiyanga icala lam, babehlala bebotshelelwe kum.

Ndagcina izinto ezingaphezulu ndaza ndazifihla egumbini lam. Ndiyazi ukuba le yincwadi yokuziphatha 'yokulutha'. Kodwa bendikude kakhulu ukuba ndenze nantoni na malunga nayo.

Emva kweminyaka embalwa ndisebenzisa i-benzos kunye ne-heroin, ndafika kwindawo apho ndakwazi ukwenza isigqibo sokukhupha i-detox. Oogqirha bandixelela ukuba andizukuphinda ndibekelwe ii-benzos kwaye ndiye ndaya kurhoxa kwangoko.

Ukurhoxiswa kwe-benzo kwakukubi ngaphezu kwecuba-kunye neheroin. Ukurhoxa kweHeroin kuyaziwa ukuba kubuhlungu kwaye kunzima, kunye neziphumo ezibonakalayo ezibonakalayo njengokujuluka okungathethekiyo, imilenze engenakuphumla, ukungcangcazela nokuhlanza.

Ukurhoxa kukaBenzo akubonakali kangako ngaphandle, kodwa kunzima nangakumbi ngengqondo. Ndaye ndanexhala, ukulala, ukuba nomsindo, kunye nokukhala ezindlebeni zam.

Ndandinomsindo koogqirha ababendimisele ii-benzos ezininzi kwiminyaka embalwa yokuqala yokuchacha. Kodwa andibasoli ngezilingo zam.

Ukuze ndiphilise ngokwenyani, kuye kwafuneka ndiyeke ukusola kwaye ndiqale ukuthatha uxanduva.

Andabelani ngebali lam njengebali elilumkisayo. Ndabelana ngayo ukuze nditshabalalise ukuthula kunye nebala elijikeleze umlutha.

Qho xa sabelana ngamabali ethu okusinda, sibonisa ukuba ukubuyela kwimeko yesiqhelo kunokwenzeka. Ngokwandisa ulwazi malunga ne-benzo kunye nokulutha kwe-opioid kunye nokufumana kwakhona, sinokubusindisa ubomi.

UTessa Torgeson ubhala imemo malunga nokulutha kunye nokubuyiselwa kwimeko yokunciphisa ingozi. Ukubhalwa kwakhe kupapashwe kwi-Intanethi eThe Fix, kwisikhululo soBonakaliso, kwiNdima / kwiReboot, nabanye. Ufundisa ukwakhiwa kunye nokubhala ngobuchule kwisikolo sokubuyisela kwimeko yesiqhelo. Ngexesha lakhe lasimahla, udlala ibass kwaye asukele ikati yakhe, uLuna Lovegood.
