hello, myself and my husband have been sitting here for hours just reading and reading trying to get some sort of hope!! something about you wants me to reach out. i was perscribed oxycontin after being on every other narcotic for years following a car accident. they worked great for the pain but much like alot of others i learned that sniffing them gave a better "feeling" so i shared these with my husband and now we are both struggling to end this big circle and have had no success with going cold turkey, i can't handle it on my own and when i'm ready to check myself in to some sort of rehab i feel guilty because i can't just leave my husband with detoxing on his own and caring for our children 4 and 10. you seem to have success with the rehab and i was wondering if your insurance did cover this and if so in full?

Gene, Hey thanks for your honesty in dealing with your situation,its helpful to here your not alone in the struggle of dealing with this stuff.
That is very nice to hear you have successfully detoxed.
I dont even know you, but i am proud of your effort.
I have been hooked by OC for a year now. I can't get them as often as I want, but I usually average 20-30 20mg pills a week.
I do crush them up and snort them, I may only actually swallow 1 out of 20 pills. I know its sux, but i love the feeling. I am able to be productive at home and get things done! I have more fun with my life when I'm on OC's. Well, this is obviously a dangerous addiction, and currently I am not holding any OC.
Its been nearly a week since I last had one, and I feel so awful, cold sweats, headaches, extreme fatigue, and no desire to participate in life. All this while having the responsibility of a wife, child, home, and an excellent job (which happens to be where my OC contact works also). I make it a point to fulfill my responsibilities but it is painstaking without the physical and mental crutch of OC. I have snorted herion and feel like OC is actually better, because in moderation I am so productive while on the medication. This is a strange way to live, I want to be independant from OC, but I love it so! Does any one have any suggestions, I don't know what steps to take to get on Methadone treatment, please enlighten me. I need methadone but I can not afford to go to a rehab center and stay.
What can I do???

Jason four days is great I know you must still feel pretty bad at times. Im writing this to tell you that I was addicted to oxy and went thru withdrawl myself. Today is 32 days opiate free for me. I cant tell you how much better I feel. If you hang in there you will also feel much better. I check out these postings twice a day if you need to talk. Bob K
