I've been on here since 2:30am central. Just moaned on my own thread. Didn't see you girl. Hang on! You keep trying, you must want it. And, you AREN'T alone. For me, the nights are the hardest! Woke at 2 feeling like an electric current was running through me. Yuchi!!

If you want rehab, know you have to come out and fix your life. My stepdaughter gone in 6-7 times. She's still a junky and is destroying her boys.

Be well and stay strong

So how would things change when you get out if rehab? Who will be taking care of Grandma while you are there? And will go back there when you get out. There are options for Grandma. Look into Respite care - someone would come over and give you are break while you go shopping or something for and afternoon or whatever.

What happens after rehab is just as important as going there.

i went to rehab and it changed my life i too kept relapsing for 8 months couldn't stay clean to save my life even when i told my husband and family about my addiction i thought go to meetings and viola fixed um no i needed rehab i need to be taken out of my environment and be totally immersed in my recovery and  address all my crap from my life i.e. childhood first marriage you know your shitt i went to one of the top 5 rehabs in the county and didn't even know it it was a duel diagnosis rehab didn't know that either they have you work on your addiction and the also address any mental health diagnosis you have i.e. depression anxiety bipolar schizophrenia etc if you have insurance go on the internet and just make calls thats what i did for about a week every day i must of called about 10 of them before i chose one some of us can do this at home with the help of aftercare and some of need a little more i have was clean i have been out of rehab a little over 3 months and only relapsed once after 118 days but i now have a clear picture of what it feels like to be clean and sober and it feels great i  never coulda imagined that i could feel this good without drugs it is really possible!!!! best of luck to you!!

The same thing has crossed my mind but i thought like this: Let's say you were to get into rehab? Ur not in rehab forever so as soon as u got out u would have this same pressure its easy to pick up a phone and call ur dealer try ur hardest to do this outpatient though. What's your story ? How long have you been on pills? I'm on day 2 also if u can do it so can I stay strong and if you can sit there and not have self reason to get clean ull never b able to go thru with it U have to hit rockbottom and you'll definetly know when that is

Okay, you only relapsed once, right? Sorry, I don't know your exact chronology.

Did you cut all your sources? You can't relapse if you can't get pills.

You know how everyone w/ time on here pounds the idea of aftercare into everyone? This is one of the reasons. You won't be alone. There are literally millions of peeps in meetings. Look at all the folks on this site. And all the new people that don't even stay on. There are tons of peeps in your exact situation. You just have to go where they are.

For TONIGHT, are you safe? Do you not have any pills or any access?

Sounds to me like you are panicking. Why do you think you need rehab vs. detoxing at home then doing aftercare/meetings which are free?
