Opiate Addiction, help? Questions?!


Question: Opiate Addiction, help? Questions?
I'm 20 years old. Ok so I have an addiction to narcotic painkillers.. I've done basically every kind of opiate there is, oxycodone, hydrocodone, heroin, morphine, etc... I've never shot up though. I've been in rehab before, but they only had me on Suboxone for a week. From what I have been reading, I should have been put on it for months, even a year or 2 or even longer. I was off of them for about 6 months, but then I started using again. I want to quit because I know that it's going to only get worse, but I just can't. I love getting high WAY too much and life's problems just seem to all go away when I'm high. I haven't had really bad withdrawals before until now. I feel sick and have insomnia and restless leg syndrome and the cravings are incredible. Anyone that's on Suboxone, or has been and is now clean with any information would be greatly appreciated. I'm not sure what I should do because I have several other psychiatric problems as well, but I REALLY don't want to discuss this with my parents AGAIN because they think that I'm clean. I want to get clean so I can fully function in life, but it seems that I can only function when I'm high. Would the Suboxone treatment psychiatrist also have me see a therapist or what? I'm VERY positive that I have social anxiety as well and have had it for some time, but my parents don't approve of the drugs that they give for that even though I've taken them before and NOT abused them because I don't like the high from the benzodiazepines. I only like the high from opiates, which is why I've been on them for a while. What's your advice on what I should do?
Rehab is also NOT an option, only outpatient is acceptable.

If Rehab is not an option,then you"REALLY" "DEEP" don't want to stop. because that could be the "show stopper" for you.



www.stop-drugs.com. The website Questionnaire can accurately detect drug / abuse!!! From behavior!!!!! I knew something was wrong with my 14-year-old son I did the test and discovered he’s on Cocaine!!

If that happens, look for a place quiet enough to sit down and relax.



I would check out www.addictsfriend.com This guy you can talk to personally and hell help you out



your depressed man. get out and start doing things



I'm a former addict, but I was never in rehab or prescribed anything. I sort of weaned myself off. But I do know that (Here in Canada, at least.) Suboxone/Methadone is prescribed, and usually you're recommended to a counselor who is basically a supportive friend kinda person that you can tell how you're doing with the treatment and how you're feeling physically (And emotionally) about quitting, etc.

Please email me if you want to know anything else. I know a lot about Opiates, and I understand where you're coming from. It's a depressing, scary thing once you realize it's a problem. jordanwhite.contact@gmail.com



I just can't. I love getting high WAY too much and life's problems just seem to all go away when I'm high<<<< you will never get better if you don't want to. However there are other options you can choose.
