Some, most people need a support system. you need to find the courage, no matter how deep you need to dig. and get yourself in to a rehabilitation center. there you will find the help and assistance you need from compassionate and understanding as well as those educated in drug abuse and addiction. The drug has now become stronger than you! You will also find people like yourself addicted, whose lives have become unmanageable. No one begins using with the idea that the drug will take over their life. And who ever uses, will have a problem, how could you not, the feelings are so euphoric and overwhelmingly great. Go to a center or call the drug abuse hot line in your area for resources there is assistance out there. You first must make up your mind that you are sick and tired of being sick and tired and being a slave to your addiction, it is a disease and unfortunately you will either quit or die with your disease. You are worth so much more than that. Go and seek some assistance, you will find compassionate and loving people to help you, you will also find there are many in this world fighting the same demons. And support comes in numbers. There you will be given the education and knowledge required to have the skills and tools to get yourself sober and stay that way. However, no one can do this for you, you are going to have to make the first step and then and only then, will you have a team of support behind you. Good luck and God bless I wish you the best of luck. If you are serious do it now while the thought is in your mind, tomorrow may be to late. 800-861-1768 or 1-800-622-HELP or 1-800-622-4357
