Hey, just go to rehab. If you were able to do this out on the streets, Im sure youd have years of clean time. Youve been to jail before which sort of institutionalizes you so rehab isnt going to be something completely strange to you. After detox, its a bunch of group meetings all day long into the evening and counseling. You'll feel like shit physically and even worse mentally but you need all the info theyll be teaching you and its kinda nice suffering around other ppl suffering similarly. I went to jail, rehab and completed a 5 yr treatment court sentence. Thanks for nothing, fentanyl. Hang in there ❤️

if it were me I'd go to rehab just to try and start over we owe it to ourselves to be better and do better and sometimes that's easier said than done. It's hard to not keep going back to it. I did 2 times before I told myself I wouldn't keep putting myself through that anymore. It's no way to live but that's the thing you gotta want to do better also. I'm just speaking from my own experience because I know what it's like and wanna help.

I've thought about rehab but I've never been to rehab and I'm nervous about taking that first step last year I just got out of prison I just did 6 months the reason I went to prison was because I got caught with a bag of meth after doing those 6 months I thought I'd stay clean when I got out but I stayed clean for a whole 3 day and was right back to wear I started i don't know why I do the things I do when I know I'm fucking up excuse my language

Please look for a detox center close by where you live. They usually help you get into a treatment center. That would be a good place to start.

I was on opiates for around 10 yrs and the withdrawals for me were really bad but I dealt with it on my own it was the worst 2 weeks ever but it does get better. Don't be afraid to reach out for help there were times during the 2 weeks that I considered going to the hospital but I just didn't. Honestly I would probably check in somewhere if that's an option for you it'll be a lot better than doing it on your own.
