My fiancé has been a drug addict he says "for the last 10 years" He just got out of detox a couple days ago and is already wanting to go back cause he doesn't want to go back to the 30's. He started shooting a few weeks ago, drinking every night, extremely suicidal. We have no money, no job, no place to live. He wants to go to a methadone clinic to see if they can help but, we have no funds what so ever. i don't know how to help him. None of his family gives a damn. and we live in a small town where it's almost unusual if you don't do some sort of a drug. I am freaking about what to do for him before it's too late. He want's to die.
 
OK. Well I used to shoot dope. I was and am a bit suicidal. I would never want to die or OD but it does race through my mind sometimes because I feel like I'm alone, but hopefully not for to much longer. I think a methadone clinic is you BEST bet and is in your fiances BEST interest. I think there's two ways to get off heroin. You can take Bupe. Which is going to make you sick and not help you out if you're a struggling drug addict like I was. Then theres Methadone. Honestly I've never felt better in my life. I'm glad I got back on and got help. My life would be really miserable right now if I would have never started going in MMT. I'm not saying I'm a, or was a, hardcore dope shooter because I wasn't but anytime it comes to the needle its always hardcore. Thats not even the point though. Most MMT programs Will help you out as much as they can. I HAVE HOMELESS people that come to my clinic and I know this because sometimes they sleep in the back I saw one the other day do it. I just basically came to a new clinic after getting sick I heard it was a nice place and not only was it nice , but it was half if not more cheaper than my old clinic. I will stay on MMT until I decide I want to purge for hours but until then----------I hope this kind of helps you out. I know it sucks living in a small town that is possibly in the middle of nowhere and the closest clinic is an hour away but I promise you will see a difference.

If this is more you being worried hes going to kill himself. Girl you need to get him to a hospital because no one but your fiance can change the suicidal thoughts in his head. For me its thinking of all the people I would hurt doing it, and how stupid it would look on my part. I hope you read this as more than some jibberish because I have been down a real shitty road and it never seems to end.

Much Love.

Edit I'd like to add that if his family doesn't care then FUCK them. They don't need to be around him. I find it hard to believe they don't car they are probably just sick of the suicidal threats, comments, and actions from him. I thought no one cared about me when I was sick and twisted. Then I told them my problem and it changed drastically how they felt towards me, and what I was doing at the time/times. I love my parents, my brother wants me to OD hes told me many times, but I still love him. I think you really need to stick on getting him off Alcohol, and Heroin first. Alcohol always made me more depressed, and mad at the world. Heroin made me rage, and will make me rage if and when I do it.

More Love.
 
You might want to check out our RESOURCES THREAD .....Not sure where you are at but there is a number of helpful links and numbers in there for all sorts of things.

You may also want to contact your local health and human services office.
Usually you can find help for all of the things you listed (and more) at your city or county offices. (If you are in the states?)

Wish you both lots of luck and please keep us posted!!! <3
 
So i am trying to get him to go to meetings but he won't because they are at a church and he's afraid they are going to push the holy roller stuff on him. I told him they wouldn't but whatever...

It seems like everyone around me is trying to get help for their addictions. I really don't understand. i've done my share of prescription pills and i got myself right off of them. I just wish it was that easy for everyone else.

Still trying to find a methadone clinic, not getting anywhere.
