Question: A few questions about opiate addiction?
(Posted by: greg h on 2009-03-08 16:20:41)
I have battled opiate addiction for two years now, started with popping hydros and slowly escalated, culminating in slamming heroin. My problem is this... due to getting in trouble with the law, my parents found out about habit and found needles, etc. They took away my phone and have me under surveillance and I don't blame them. I really want to find help and go to a rehab or something comparable but the problem is the incredibly long waiting lists. I haven't used in two days and am going through hell and I know that suboxone has helped me in the past. What I am afraid of is finally getting in to see a doctor and due to my lockdown and everything I explain my history to the doctor who is subsequently astonished to find NO OPIATES in my drug test. I am afraid this will stop him from prescribing subs, which I desperately do need. Any comments of advice would be greatly appreciated Any expert thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated, as would urgency. I really am at a loss for what to do. |
