i want to quit but the reson i cant go to rehab is i have kids and dont want them taken away. if my family found out my kids would be gone. i just really need to know how long the sickness will last and what can help ease it. i dont want to take more x that is the point of me coming on here. hoping that i can do this myself without rehab. it really scared me this weekend when i had to take X to keep from getting sick. i terrified and want to stop for real. plus rehab just puts you on diffrent drugs to help u stop another thats not what i want i want to stop.not downing rehab but i want to be strong and do it on my own. i have never had a drug take me like this just from taking it one time. im so scared and lost i just thought someone on here would understand and maybe they felt the same way at one time and could give me some pointers on what im facing and how to get threw it.
