first thing to do is stop smoking crack, next is go to a meeting, there are plenty of people suffering just as you there!
if you can't get yourself to a meeting pick up the phone and call the cocaine hotline 1-800-cocaine!
there will be someone there to talk to

Ive gone so deep into space with this one that I feel so out of control. My every move is one I never thought Id do and I loose respect for myself more and more every day. Im a good old boy from a small town and today I am a driver and protection for a prostitution ring and Im at the mercy of the drug and the kingpins throughing it at me.

Thank you all for responding so quick. Im no stranger to recovery or addiction Ive been on something for over 15 years Pot daily and powder coke and meth addictions for over 5 years I cleaned out and stopped everything in Oct. 2004 I made it for 58 days through a great treatment I relapsed on crack and Ive never in my life felt a draw to a drug this hard before. Like I said Ive been a daily addict on something for at least 12 years and Im in new drowding in new water. Im calling the help line for support today and plan on a meeting in minneapolis at 6:30. I do like the support on this site so I hope to talk to alot of you. I really need friends now more then ever because of having to cold turkey all the friends Ive had my whole life.
Thank you all again and look for more support soon

spider,
i've learned that the faster i ran the quicker my disease caught up, sometimes it even passed me by, but it always stopped not too far in the distance waiting for me to catch up.
i've also learned that no matter where i ran to, i always brought me with myself, and i'm the problem.
just food for thought bro, we can change anything we want, but nothing changes until we do!

i couldnt exactly walk up to "management" and tell them i quit, if you know what i mean...
I did let them know that i was going into rehab, though...
I had to be willing to change everything...
I needed a safe place to detox, and a safe place to start over, after that....
After rehab, I couldnt exactly move back to the crackhouse, ya know???
There is a way out of it, and you can stay clean with the help of others in recovery...
