Hey all,
I know it's been a while since I last posted. There seem to be alot of great new support here! Anyway, for most of you that don't know. I am an oxy, oxycodone, perc, vicodin addict. I have been for well over a year now. My max dosage is usually around 120mg. I am now back into withdraw and on day 4. I am uncertain about this aftercare. I know i have been trying to get clean for about 3 months now and keep struggling with relapses. I called a program today in my small town and they want you to see the physician and go through a series of questions to see if you would qualify for the program. They do have NA and several other support groups that you are supposed to attend while you are there. I guess my question would be....some have said aftercare in small towns can be bad and then i have also heard others that have gone to NA meeting and most the people there were court ordered and not really into getting help. I have been so nervous to work may way up to the next step, but i think i might need it. Tell me some of your thoughs on aftercare and if i should attend this type of group. I do have to pay 350 out of pocket just to see the dr. I think he is like an addiction specialist. Should i just find an NA meeting and go on or should i go through this designed aftercare program? Thanks to all you guys out there who have been with me all the way. You all are so special to me and i appreciate your support. Jeri
