do my rehab on my own? i dont follow
It sounds like you really want this and I'm so glad. You can definitely do it. I would definitely tell them your concerns about the Klonopin. I know my doctor always asks me what works best for me when I see her. You should have some say in that.
Its good to have your mom and brother suporting you. If they are supportive I'm sure your dad will be too. Good luck.
Hi. I am so touched by your desire to be rid of this awful addiction at such a young age. I pray that you find a rehab that will allow you to take the maintenance meds that you need. You need to be foreceful or get a dr. to vouch that you need this to function normally. I would not give up on getting them to let you have this medication in rehab.
I'm praying for you...you have your whole life ahead of you to experience. Hopefully you can do it without drugs.
God Bless
Deciding to quit on your own is great. Much better than being thrown into it. I was in jail and there was someone in there who had a heroin addiction. What a horrible place to go through that . Best to get out of this before the law catches up with you. That will be a whole nother nightmare.
Your emotional problems may go away after you quit. You know the opiates do a number on our brains. I had an anti-depressant to take while i was going through the quitting and then i got off it. It did really help alot and i have never been depressed before i started using. and am fine now.
maybe you will have to do your rehab on your own?
Welcome back, I hope this time is different for you. Sounds like your in the right frame of mind to beat it this time. Don't worry about the what if's right now. The first step is reaching out and you are doing that. If you truly need the klonopin, I don't think they'll take it from you. It's a med you can't CT anyway so just let them know your concern and go from there. Like sadinmichigan said, get into some counseling for your anxiety issues. There are many who fight this battle and there's lots of help for it. Just take one step at a time, and don't look back. Keep posting too, it helps all of us.
Welcome back! You came on here when I first started here. It is good to see you.
I am glad that you have finally made this decision for yourself..wanting to do it is the key to getting off the drugs..There is a better life ahead for you off drugs but if you remain on them..well you see where it has already taken you and it will keep taking you down..so congrats on the decision you made.
I am sure you will find a rehab that will not try and make you get off klonopin..are you abusing it?
I think getting yourself away from the temptations is a good decision but just know that the temptation is everywhere and it's easy to find..I suggest after you do rehab to get yourself some counceling or aftercare..meetings of some kind, I also deal with anxiety so I know how that goes and have a mild case of agoraphobia..I am taking steps now to try and break out of that. I am sick of making myself a prisoner in my own house..
Good luck to you and please keep us posted..
