I was addicted to opiates for many years, even heroin..all starting when i was a young teen.experimenting soon turned to additcion, etc..one traumatic thing after another also..but i have been taking suboxone for over a year now, jus moved to san jose .its like i was given a second chance at life, n i dont wanna mess it all up again...i do not have medical insurance.I was getting them from a close family member who did have insurance(and has gone thru the addiction n sobriety process the exact same time as me).(kiss my ass this has nothing to do with it all)I dont know where to turn.family dont have a clue to the whole ordeal.I originally moved out here to get away from all the drugs, was impossible to do so living in my hometown in ohio, mofo shit is everywhere.ive done the a.a./ n.a. approach, didnt do shit for me(6 months- 7 days a week).half the ppl in them rooms were liars and still smokin crack , whatever.so what i need to know is how do i approach this in a new town, with limited resources.Suboxone is the only thing that has worked for me...seems like there was more to write on here, cant even think straight.........

You moved to CA to get off drugs, so now do it. Wean off the sub, detox, and start your new life. you are right...12 step programs suck, and have a VERY low success rate...practically a non existent success rate. Try some one on one pprofessional ccounseling It is aavailablefree almost everywhere if you look, and maybe try some rational recovery programs, like SMART recovery. Suboxone is evil stuff to detox from, but it can be down. subsux.com
