Coming off heroin after 4 months
Permalink  

Hi i am new to this board and need help. I had a problem since October snorting heroin and it has gotten worse up to this point. I have just lost my job, hurt my family and got caught with it the last time on Tuesday. The withdrawls and pain were horrible. Even though I only did it for 4 months I did a lot of it .. I was up to snorting 8 bags a day. I had to stop cold turkey but relapsed today after stopping on Wednesday and snorted 2 bags. MY family doesnt want me on suboxone but I think it would be my best option. I never wanna tough heroin again but the cravings are so hard and i hate having this demon. I am only 20 years old and know i have my whole life ahead of me  i just need help and advice please thank u

You can't do this alone, so asking for help is a huge step.
I suggest you get in touch with your local area NA hotline.
They can arrange for people to help you get to meetings and start to build a support network of recovering addicts who have experienced your pain.
To find your area hotline enter your area code
Good luck and KEEP COMING BACK

Bro your best bet is to try to get your self in some kind of treatment facility, your not gonna be able to fight this demon alone, not unless some body chains your ass to a pole and scorts you back and forth to meetings and still you might break loose, I just heard of two young men dying from over doses, don't allow this to happen to you, get your self some where, where you'll get the help you need and accept your situation for what it is, you no longer call any shots, if you don't get help soon , the drug will take over totally until your dead ,homeless, or imprisioned for a long time, treatment is not so bad, you just have to do as your told and keep your mouth shut....don't fight your help, help it out instead by taking and doing suggestions, good luck to you......aww
