Answer by Boogymann
You are about to embark on a long and difficult journey called “drug rehab”.

Your question suggests that you are thinking in the short term – 90 to 180 days or so.

The truth is that most people like you end up spending their whole lives grappling with the drug rehab boogeyman.

Forget about electro therapy – if I were you, i would be much more concerned about ending up in prison after you get arrested with drugs a second time.
