How do I tell My Parents?

Hi, Im 37 years old. I started using opiate painkillers roughly 7 years ago. I have spiraled slowly downward to roughly 6 weeks ago injecting heroin and also cocaine. My parents are aware that I have had addiction trouble. They currently are still suspicious that I am using although I tell them Im not. I am newly single and living with my dad. I knew from the first time i injected I was in big trouble. I hate it. I dont know why I do it. I want to quit and be clean NOW!! I want to tell my parents everything but Im not sure how to do it especially since Ive lied to them recently about my use. I just need some tips on how to start the conversation. I have a plan to get medicare as I currently dont have insurance and check into a rehab center immediately but getting the insurance is taking a while and I dont know if I can hold out much longer. Also, what are your views on suboxone programs? Please help.
