Why don't you go get on a program with a clinic? are you able to do that? I went on suboxone and I've been on it for a year, I'm at the end of my taper now.

The one thing I learned is you have to stay away from users. If the people in your life really love you they will understand. I had to cut almost everyone out of my life, it was hard but you have to love yourself more, put yourself first, remember it's your life!!!!

Hang in there, stay strong and we are all here if you need to talk. I know how bad withdrawals can be, is there a way you can be honest about using and not get in trouble? just so you can go get help from a doctor?

Very well said.... I am finally in my 4th day of detox and OMG do I finally feel good enough to get up and get to my computer and get in touch. I finally decided to come out to my family and take responsibility for my actions.

Keep up the good work to recovery! It is nice to see there are others out there that know how I feel.
