Boosie on Going Through Terrible Withdrawals Trying to Quit Lean

Boosie Badazz sat down with DJ Vlad for another classic conversation where they discuss issues within the Culture. Boosie speaks on the dangers of "Lean" and how it is actually a form of Heroin. He recalls being a heavy lean user as a teen and going through severe withdrawals trying to ween himself off of the addictive substance. Boosie also gets real personal and talks about losing his father at a young age. Watch above.

[@jojotdwp]

You can only appreciate life when you know you were close to the end. Withdrawls are scary.. it send your body into shock & anxiety.. it's a horrible feeling

[@brazilianambassadordale8223]

@@jojotdwp ik how it is. Been through it many times with many different classes of drugs and the common theme is that it sucks. In the case of opioid, kratom (ik it's an opioid, but I feel like people look at it as something separate or more benign when it can be anything but that), benzo, and, at least ime to a lesser extent, stimulant withdrawals, they were a fucking hell like none I could ever imagine without having gone through them myself. They're something you should definitely never underestimate. I also know what you're saying about finally appreciating life. I was only really able to do that while in the midst of opioid withdrawals. Opioids numb you, and when you take that numbness away, you finally realize the damage you were doing by numbing reality.

[@gobblegobble831]

He should acknowledge the emotional side of withdrawal too. A lot of people hear "ah man you're shitting your pants and throwing up for a week" and that sounds unpleasant, but it's nothing compared to the shockingly intense mental and emotional strain going thru w/d puts you through. You can see how seriously Boosie takes the concept of w/d, clearly there's something more to it than a couple days of flu like symptoms. It's harder to articulate that aspect of it, but it's like feeling like you're drowning and losing everything important to you and suddenly every problem you've avoided for years is on the forefront of your mind with no escape. It's a one of a kind special kind of hell and the only way out is to go straight through it. It can reduce the strongest men to tears

[@DaBean617]

Absolutely. I could handle the "flu symptoms " it's the soul crushing depression and crazy anxiety. And like a month of no sleep.. fuck that

[@RifleEyez]

I found I got huge depersonalisation when I quit. Like I was a completely different person on opiates to who I am off them, and it was like waking up like “how did I get here”? Noticing minor details in things I never even thought about around my house, idk I can’t explain it. Hit me hard when every big life event I had I was either high or thinking about how I was gonna get more high - marriage, kid born, buying a house, everything. It’s like a lived as a different person for a decade. And then I always get hit with nostalgia thinking of things in the past, sitting up with restless legs google mapping my old neighbourhood with memories flooding back. Crazy shit

I quit alprazolam (xanax) cold turkey, after about 3yrs and it was the worst thing I've ever experienced, physically. I was dizzy and weak as hell. I couldn't hold down any food. I had the shakes so bad, I couldn't sleep because I'd get nauseous when I closed my eyes. Whenever I attempted to eat, I'd end up on the toilet with a trash can in my lap, not knowing which end it would come out. People say withdrawls last about a week but after 2 weeks, there was still no sign of improvement so I ended up at the emergency room, getting lectured by the ER doc about how I could have died. I was dehydrated, low in iron and potassium and had lost 20 lbs. Its been 20yrs and I'm so grateful to be clean from that stuff. Addiction is no joke and withdrawal is hell. It's like being held captive by whatever substance you're addicted to.

Capo Gainz he clarified when he said he supplied the southern region and that's facts. Ugk nem started it but it wasn't no trend like that, so technically he was right when he said he started it btw.

[@Abd-al-Qadr]

Capo Gainz but pimp and ugk didnt supply ride around with a trunk full of pints in the south

[@CamboyGDubbz]

Doesn't matter who "started it" ... I'm just glad artists like Boosie or Killer Mike are speaking out on how bad it is for your health, and how it's been glamourized for far too long.

[@valeriaperez7876]

Them withdrawals ain't no joke. I was a heroin addict for 11 years and maaan those withdrawals. Horrible! I'm talking about you start with the yawning, then cold sweats, then stomach cramps and runny nose then your back starts aching and the bowel movements and throwing up. You sitting on the toilet with a trash can in front of your face. The worst part though, opiods make you get constipated. I know it's TMI but it's facts. I tried everything and nothing helped. I had friends get sick cuz they would force themselves to hold it in because once you been constipated for a minute and you ready to use the bathroom your stool done got HUGE and rock hard. Then you hold it in for a week and when there's no more holding it..it's PAINFUL and bloody. I could only muster up the courage to use the bathroom first thing in the morning before getting well while being sick. So think twice before you fuck around and use opiods. But I agree with Boosie, once you overcome addiction and you're done FORREAL you don't want the shitty feeling from withdrawals ever again! Oh and all my favorite shirts and pants had burn holes in them as well. Nodding out with a cigarette. Being sober is the best feeling ever! I'd rather be sober and starting from scratch then chasing that first high living on the streets looking crazy.

[@DanburyConnecticut]

does anyone still not realize that Lean is an opioid and the same as Percocet, oxy, or heroin?

[@luim3637]

Damon Vasiliw Pssh, not true, when they run out of money to buy lean they will substitute it with heroin and slowly get hooked on it.

[@Splozy]

You're dumb as fuck. Opiates are addictive as fuck. Entire generation of older people addicted to prescribed codeine.

[@nicholasspencer2747]

Cod is lame. $5k you could get fifty perk 80's and that's priced at $100 a piece. Get a HUGE deal picking up 50. Codine is lame AF. If take sub before that. Then snort a pin. Don't know why all these rappers like xnx more. Like pump doesn't even let it sit under his younger he swallows it lol. Snort pins way better. Green is my fav mmmm

[@travislouis1987]

DanburyConnecticut codeine is super weak and not even close to oxy or heroin. And oxy and Percocet is the same drug. It’s just the Percocet i Has acetaminophen in the pill. Oxy does not

I was addicted to codeine for 5 years, I was healthy no medical issues while taking it, but I then decided to quit, went cold turkey, 5 month later after being clean, I've now got kidney problems, I've got a auto immune disorder, my body is fucked up!

[@briansabogal1879]

As an ex addict myself I appreciate Boosie coming out and sharing this stuff. While my own stuff was harder than codeine, they all belong in the same family and will seriously fuck you up in the long term. I’ve seen over 50 friends die and now I watch these youngins running around laughing and talking about popping Xanax and drinking lean. Well withdrawal from any benzo, klonopin, Ativan, XANAX, can kill you. The only type of withdrawal that can kill you other than from alcohol. And the withdrawal from lean will just make you WISH you were dead. It may be fun while it’s going on but then some years go by and you’re just functioning and getting “normal” not high and from there it’s downhill. And if you ain’t got money like boosie? Well you’re gonna sell, rob, steal or whatever you can to get it. A real answer from a real street cat wanting to be honest and pass on legitimate knowledge. Pay attention youngins.

[@msuchiha896]

Close but not quite. You can die from methadone also. These cycles are not new. Opioids used to be over the counter.

[@jimclayron417]

Ya I was on oxy and hydromorphone and honestly I don’t know how people get addicted to codeine that shit is so weak and i never even got a buzz off it. The Hydrocodone though which for some reason 99% of the people that act like lean experts don’t know about cuz they not really on it. That hydro is 1000x better than codeine and yet none of these niggas even know about it.
