Hello all. I really need to clean up my drug and alchohol addiction. I am almost done with my schooling and i fear that any job i will try to get will not want to hire someone like me. please help with advice so i can get off these drugs.

Welcome to SR Chris, Dgillz suggested exactly what I would suggest, why not give your local AA or NA hotline and check out some meetings.

Hello....
You are correct....many jobs do drug tests before hiring.
