very embarrassed, snorting pills

[france30956]

I have been snorting percs and vicodins. I am now going through withdrawal, trying to get off, but part of me can't wait to do it again. I want to be clean, but yet I don't. I am ashamed, no one knows this except my best friend. Please help. I feel like **** right now, going on 36 hours with only one pill as i could not sleep and had terrible restlessness and had to do something to get me thru. One pill in that amount of tiime is nothing for me, I usually do 8 a day.

You should really post this as a new question. You will get a lot of help if you do that.

I just found out that my little sister (15) started snorting pills with her friend.  Thank God this has only been going on for 3 weeks and has all been fouind out.  It is now out that the school that she attends is full of this.  There is a huge investigation and a lot of people will hopefully get help.  The parents are reacting in anger wanting as many people to be taken down as can be since their child is also involved.  It seems to be that the parents are acting more vindictively that in the best interest of getting their child help.  My heart is saddened by them wanting to be vindictive and focus on that than just letiing the chips fall and do their best to help their child.  
Through this it seems that the kids involved do not understand what the medications they choose to snort can cause them.  My sister and her friend snorted a blood sugar med that drops sugars by 100+ point.  This can cause them to go into a coma or death.
If anyone has advice on how to educate them or any tips on quidence, since I am a firm believer in "if you have been there, you have the best advice"  I am turning here.
My advice to you all is that if you have family, turn to them and the most important is to turn to God.  He loves you and promises that his love is never conditional.  I am sure that there are many churches that can help.  There are many people in this world that have overcome.  My brother was very heavy into drugs (any and all).  My family has seen it's share of drug use and we AS A FAMILY have come through it with the help of God and our church.
My prayer is that you all find the way out of this.  I am sorry that for what ever reason your lives have lead you to the point of using drugs, but these can be healed.  Remember the first step to recovery is forgiving yourself.  Then God can heal your heart.  I hope you all have someone you can turn to for help.  Just speak up.  Please turn to someone.  There is no return from death it is the ultimate end all and an unforgivable sin.  There is someone in your life that you can help even through your own pain.

If anyone has advice please let me know.  Be sure to address any e-mail in regards to this or I will not open it.

Hi France, My name is MikeWithFamily, I read your post and understand where you are mentally; I was there about 3 weeks before I finally made a decision to quit. I am now going on week #5 and feeling better than I have in years. Its wonderful to be off of them. My relationships with everyone has improved significantly, particularly with my wife. When I was feeling the way you are, I could not put my finger on why I was feeling the way I was. It was wierd because I desperatly wanted to stop, yet I desperately could not imagine how I could cope without the pills. Then, like I said about 3 weeks after that. I just could not stand it anymore and prayed hard. I prayed and prayed and prayed. What happened next was and still is an amazing experience. The Lord led me to this website where I asked for help and within minutes I was surrounded by 3 or 4 loving people wanting to help me so bad, I could feel their desire to bust through the computer to help me...lol. Seriously, I did.. Anyway, I received some great advice; one of which included calling my doctor and asking for help - perhaps asking to be put on a Suboxone Plan, which I am on right now. Suboxone will mask the withdrawal feelings of not taking the drugs anymore. You will have absolutely no urges or desire to take pills...and I mean none! It gives you a chance (at least this is what I am doing) to develop healthier habits to occupy your time and start new routines of what you do when you get out of work, when you have friends visiting, etc...I have yet to find the proper words to adequetly describe how the last 5 weeks have been. What I thought was impossible, was not only possible, but it was an incredible blessing. GOD came through for me. I still wonder why and how he would do that for me since I had been doing everything other than honoring him for the past 4 or 5 years. But the LORD Loves me, and he Loves you too France. I am going to say a prayer for you right now.....I asked the LORD to provide you with courage to kneel down and pray and to give you the wisdom to ask him for help and forgiveness along with strength to endure. Seriously France, just pray. Ask the LORD to lead you and he will. I will continue to pray for you France. If you feel something tugging at you, do not dismiss it...succumb to it and you will be on your way. God Bless
