I don't know how to get out of this mess..

stop! stop right now beeing so selfpitty, deal with the facts of your life, if you have some attitude you're gonna be laughing of this times a few months from now. otherwise its a no end road.
 
i hear you man and ive been there. being addicted to heroin sucks and its so hard when you feel like you have nothing to stop for. i remember, when i was at my worst, i would think "if i just had one good thing going for me in my life i would just suck it up and deal with all the pain and get clean." unfortunately it just doesnt work like that.. in order to get things in your life that are worth being clean for you have to actually get clean first. nothing good will just come to you while you're lost in dope addiction. but i promise you if you can get clean (and it wont be easy and it will take a long time just to feel normal again) good things will come into your life and you'll look back on this time the way you would remember a bad dream.

and i totally know what you're saying.. the physical withdrawal is tolerable, its the soul crushing depression you're left with after it's over that keeps you going back. but i swear it gets better if you hang in there.

i can really relate to your situation and if you ever need someone to talk to i would be happy to share my experiences with heroin addiction and getting clean.
 
First off I would drop this girl like a bad habit (no pun intended). As much as you may think you need her around, when you can get her around, you really don't. Once you get that break away from her the glamor of it wears off and you'll be over it.

Second I would find something to be passionate about other than drugs and wrap yourself up in it, distract yourself as much as you possibly can (I know that is way easier to say than do), but if there is anything else that you have fun doing than do it, and do it a lot and you will realize there are other things that life is worth living for. Even if you are still in mental agony knowing, and especially seeing that there is some light down there at the end of that long ass tunnel can keep you going.

Why don't you try dropping your dope habit and save the money you would've spent on that and take a trip to somewhere you've always wanted to go, and go alone. Going somewhere far away and being out of your element can put a lot of things in perspective, not to mention it's very peaceful. To be with yourself. It sort of reminds me of the Buddhist retreats people go to.... days and days of silence, no talking, no noises, just complete silence. It really only leaves you living in your own head and that is some serious shit. I don't know, I think you would really have to be ready for that one because I know how hard it is to live in one's own head with out the silence and distractions but who knows it could work for you. Good luck and I hope shit gets better for you.
