Hiya Ellie, Welcome to SR, you will find a lot of support here

I am also quitting the opiates for about the 10th time, and the w/d is horrible, you think it would be enough to never relapse again, but drugs are a very powerful thing.

However, we have the opportunity to relinquish this power and start anew

Good luck to you and I hope to see you around,

Stacy

Welcome! I am so glad you are here.

There is a lot of information in the Substance Abuse forum also.

Keep reading, and posting. You are not alone.

Hi Ellie
Welcome to SR

I know very little about opiates but I know you'll find support here for both your issues

We also have a substance abuse forum you might want to read as well
Substance Abuse - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information
