Still Addicted…?
Question by so_fresh: Still addicted…?
I’ve tried over and over so many times to quit using narcotic pain killers, but I can’t last more than 3 days. How are people supposed to get clean when they can’t afford help? I know I’m addicted, I know I need help, but I simply don’t have the money for any kind of treatment. I know I could go to NA but I think it would just give me more access to drugs- we all know who hangs around those meetings, right? Anyway now I’m looking on here to see if anyone has advice or ideas on how I can quit… I feel like there’s no way out, like I know where I need to go, but don’t have any idea how to get there.

this may sound silly but smoking some marijuana will stop you using pain killers, but you could get addicted to that too?

Get into a methadone maintenance program. Then bring yourself down slowly on the dose until you don’t need it anymore. If you ae in Ca. MediCal pays, otherwise it’s $ 280 per month
