Answer by Kenneth C
I am a minister. I have counseled numerous youth just like yourself over the years. Your story is just like huge numbers of others…years ago I had a close friend …like you who wanted “out’ and couldnt get there. She did exactly as you did…promised herself and God she would quit on Monday and Tuesday she was looking for a connection and some money to make the deal.
She died.

Go to a church…any church during the weekdays..
and tell the lady at the church you need to visit the minister.
Or at least the youth minister.

Do this for yourself.
No one else.
Not your parents.
Not your boyfriend.
Not your friends.
For YOU.

Stay at home this weekend….

but the bottomline is this…no one …and I mean no one wants to do rehab…but all that do drugs need rehab.
YOU HAVE TO GO.

BITE THE BULLET and do it.

I am someone who cares.

They will direct you to agencies and medical help

    Well that is just drugs. Hard drugs. Smoking pot can be okay i guess I really do not know anyone that has had any kind of medical problems because of that but other things trust me can really F*U*C*K you up. Mentally and physically. Its just them you can not control that you are getting addicted and when you realize what is happening you really can not help that. All you can do is try and stay strong and quit. You may need help from friends who are not around that or also involved with the drug. You need some kind of support to help you along the way. Thats what they do in good rehabs. They try to be there and help you through that tough time. The physically and mental affects of drugs just are not good. I know. I have friends who do it and have managed to quit. They say that they are glad that they did and would not ever want to do it again. I wish you luck on your problem and i can only imagine how hard it is going to be, perhaps you can smoke some pot instead of them other hard drugs until you know you can stop completely. then work on that issue also.

    Yeah I know the feeling…i used to be the same way…Im sorry it sucks I know…but if you don’t quit your going to mess you life up really bad….boring or not that is not the answer…you should really get some help…..I know its hard but you arn’t hurting just yourself….but the people around you that care about you

  • Natasha B:

    yes you are you cant do that stuff recreation-ally it always turns into a habit you have to stop now while you are young you have so much to look forward to if you stop it and get on the right track the way you are going is harm prison and death
    you should value your life don’t throw it away PLEASE WAKE UP !!!!

  • Nick Bergeron:

    Drugs are like a wall that do hide feelings, both liquor and illegal drugs cause cloudyness in your mind making you think happiness when truely they are leading you to depression. I cant help you stop but I recommend you change who you are hanging out with, try getting a hobby that you enjoy, and try getting off 1 drug at a time each month. Considering doing drugs is a habit, if you dont do it for while you wont feel the need for it. I know many of people who took the drug path in there life and ended up where they never wanted to. I know its hard and it will probably take alot of willpower to overcome it but you need to try.

  • vineet:

    see you do not need these drugs to be happy! and that is what you gotta realize.. see you know that you gotta stop and yet you are not able to .. so i guess you are pretty addicted.. i guess the only way to do it is urge urself to stop. plan something else for the weekend like going to movies, or maybe to a holiday destination.. do something that will keep you away from the drugs! i know you have to enjoy life and blah blah.. but even we guys enjoy life but we dont do drugs.. well if you are not able to stop then you will have to consider rehab! but obviously ur future is not spoilt or something! there is always help whenever you need it! good luck dear 🙂

  • Buster Vainamoinen:

    You asked “Am I addicted?”

    YES – YOU ARE ADDICTED.

    YOU NEED TO GO TO REHAB.

    I’m very sorry that this has happened to you. Don’t waste a bunch of time beating yourself up about this or asking “Why?” This is just the way it is. Go, get help. You will be AMAZED at how much better you will feel within a week of getting help kicking the drugs.

  • Anita H:

    Yes sweetie, you are addicted. You stated that you don’t want to go to rehab! Honey somethings have to helped, by experts. Now, one thing you have to understand, the drugs have altered your mind, in other words, they’ve trapped u into believing yuo don’t need help. You sound very determined, but at the same time, afraid, and thats okay. You’re not destined for a bad life experience, but a fulfilling one. Unfortunately, you were sold counterfeit happiness. Come on, talk to me, what do u honestly want for your life,what are ur doubts, fears, hopes and untimately, what would it take 4 u 2 b happy?

    I’ve been, where you are….

    (First off, are you ASKING this as a question…..? OR, are you SHARING this info. about yourself because….? -Think about it…)
    If you really are ‘doing drugs’ because you are “bored”, might I suggest a ‘hobby’?
    Most people however, use drugs as an ‘escape’, or to be able to ‘deal’ with life….
    I’m sure I don’t need to tell you there are ‘better ways’ to ‘face’ life and it’s problems than through drug use… but maybe a trip to see a Doc. would be a good idea! (DO be COMPLETELY open & HONEST with him or her if you go!)
    I hate to say it but YES (!!!!), you ARE “setting yourself up for failure”!!! It may sound ‘cliche’ but ‘drugs’ REALLY ARE a ‘DEAD-END’!!!!
    It sounds like you are “addicted” to being “f^ck#d up” rather than to any one particular drug. And since you are mainly doing “major drugs” on the weekends, you probably have not gotten PHYSICALLY addicted to them. That’s good!
    Nip this in the bud (no pun intended…) As you said, even though you “still didn’t feel normal” from a previous weekend you “did more drugs anyway”! In the hopes of feeling ‘better’ OR getting ‘high’ again…??? Either way, can you see a ‘vicious circle’ beginning to evolve??? I PROMISE you, it CAN & WILL GET WORSE!!!! Get away from it while you can!!!
    And BE CAREFUL!!!!! Do you realize you did 3 “opioids” in one hour (methadone, opium & vicidin)?!?! They are all “downers”, you could have “nodded off” & never woken up!!! Did you know that Methadone ‘peaks’ at 12 hours, & continues to keep you ‘high’ for 24 hrs?!? VERY DANGEROUS!!! -I’ve been through a “Twelve Step Program” (for ‘getting off’ drugs) -it was called “Twelve Dead Friends”!!!! NO JOKE!!!!!! I have SEEN people DIE!!!!! And I have nearly died (on more than one occasion)!!!! Talk about a ‘buzz-kill’!!!
    And then there’s the “withdrawal” that comes hand-in-hand with “physical addiction”…! HOLY HELL!!!!! Whether you go through the “D.T’s” because you WANT to ‘quit’ or just because you CAN’T ‘find anything’ (drugs), IT SUCKS!!!! Then is the time when you WISH for death!!! I can’t think of a worse feeling in the world! (Gives me the s~h~i~v~e~r~s just thinking about it!!!!)
    Oh girl, you’re in for a “world of hurt” if you continue down the path you’re on…..!

Think of how it hurts our loved ones to see us like this over and over. Coming off an 8 yr deal nevr missed a day! Dedicated to not being dopesick,

  • MrAlbie1970:

  • ibogahelp:

    Suboxone is the source of misery for tens of thousands of people. People are made? to believe it is the best option because it is very profitable for the doctors involved. Based on the experience I have with Suboxone and the the people I work with, I would never suggest anyone take Suboxone. It is a much tighter form of opiate slavery.

  • ibogahelp:

    Ibogaine is the only thing that will make the obsession go? away.

  • bardster111:

    why not suboxone?…that will? solve everything
