need help quiting drugs ?!

Smoke weed.

I'm in pretty much the same boat as you. I've been addicted to intravenous opiates for about a year and alcohol for about 4 years. I've been to rehab, detox, and addiction counseling, none of them worked. I used to shoot up about 3 times a day and drink about 15 drinks a day, I'm now down to drinking about 8 drinks every 2 days and shooting up every 3 days and I'm continuing to decrease. What I found to be very helpful was simply gradually cutting down on frequency and dosage and using OTC codeine to help with withdrawals. I've also attended numerous hyponosis sessions, they help quite a bit. It's a slow process but I believe it's the best way. And one very, very important thing is you truly need the desire to stop. If you're just trying to quit because people are telling you to, you'll never get there. Once you get to the point that you really want to get off of it, it's downhill from there.

Personal experience and observation of other recovering addicts.

I've been to rehab too. I'm addicted to opiates. Tried codeine, hydrocodone, oxycodone, morphine, heroin, the works. I take any and all I can get and I'm going through withdrawals as I'm typing this and it's HELL. I guess Suboxone would work for the opiates, I couldn't say for the benzos because I don't like the high from them so I don't take them. I know that even though I'm going through withdrawals right now that I'm going to go right back out and get high as soon as I can.. I really want to quit though and get my life back on track. You REALLY have to WANT to quit. I quit drinking cold turkey because I had a VERY bad occurence a little over a month ago that scared me straight out of it. I don't like drinking anyways, I only like opiates. And it's not like I was addicted to the liquor.
Try talking to a Suboxone management doctor as that's what I'm going to do very shortly as soon as I can work up the courage to talk to my parents yet AGAIN about this problem..

I think you should go to a drug counselor or family member for help and making sure you stay on the right path. Take their advice. Then I think you should google meditation techniques. It can be wicked frustrating at first but once you got it, it feels great. You can even kinda get a high from it. What it will do provide a deeper relaxation, make your reality better and give yoiu some positive vibes. Then I think you should find an activity that would be better to than drugs.

pray pray pray,especially when you are feeling like dirt,i smoked crack for 7 years,drank to blackout for 20,i hit the bottom of bottom,and still craved a high,i prayed for about a year for god to make a change,i knew if i kept getting high that i would graduate from jail to prison,that really didnt scare me,but did make me more aware of what i was doing was illegal,and i was a two time felon,so the next would surely be prison,for a year or two,you have to want to stop ,or at least be open for change,i promise if you dont give up on god,he wont let you down,sooner or later,you will get a high at things you never would dream,i still want to get high,right now as a matter of fact,but i think through the high,or drink, and know where it will get me,pick up the bible,and get yourself the blue book,(bill wilson) a.a.,trade the drink for pills in the book, there the same,if you do go back to rehab,(i been to 6) find one that is NOT state run,they can only tell you what the government want them to tell you,find a private run rehab,they will break you down and build you up the right way,sounds like you have taken the first step in addmittance,dont for WE addmitted ,that means you are not alone,SORRY FOR THE SPELLING,good luuck my friend,and god bless your journey

Yeah, go back to rehab.
Lots of people get frequent flyer miles before they finally "get it".

No pills no powders. Weed is your best option now though.
