Why is it so hard?

[d3c0ded]

I am trying to find a doctor in Cleveland, Ohio and it seems like everyone I call is treating me as a drug seeker. I have never seen a doctor for treatment before, in fact I used heroin 3 years ago and quit it cold turkey but it just seems harder this time. I am an IT professional and just want my life back, but it seems like all the doctors in my area don't care. I've stopped doing drugs yesterday and am feeling serious withdrawals, and need to find a doctor today. Can anyone help me?

im in this boat right now dont know if i should go cold turkey or subs.....i really dont want to lose my job....i guess i can take family med leave for a cpl weeks till im well.....i know subs can be a nightmare to come off of...but at the same time i went c/t of of a 15-20 a day 30mg roxy habit and that was hell...if it was for my x girl i dont think i would have made it

in my exp if you call a dr they are all guna treat u like a addict just as if u have a script and call pharms and say do u have this kinda drug they will all say NO  if u want results you are just guna have to get out in streets and go 2 the dr but if your trying to get subs 2 get off heroin i would suggest putting in the time cold turkey cause the subs will only make things worse and im a X-heroin user (IV) and its pry easier get off the dogfood in my eyes

What kind of doctor are you looking for? Are you kicking heroin again right now?

You have two choices at this point.
