I am a 33 year old male who has been a drug addict since a teenager I cant seem to stop. t?

Question

should I continue with my plan to breath in some carbon monoxide fumes out of my cars tailpipe before everyone here at home gets up in the morning. I am tired of putting my family through my troubles.

Answer 1

the person above that said that an addiction needs to be replaced with another one is correct. There is more to life than giving up. Get some professional help, but most importantly, get your family's support. The combination will get you onto the right path. After that, remove yourself from the people and places that you get your stuff from. Stay away from those places. Giving up is not the answer. When you get over the physical aspect of your addiction, turn to something else, like the person above said...writing, drawing, exercising, paint, photography. Besides think of all the money you can save by not doing the drugs. Control it, don't let it control you. If you want, even get a more spiritual aspect on life. i am not saying to go religious freak...do what is best for you. If you start to think about it, divert your attention to your new "addiction", a better one that is better for you in all sorts of ways. good luck.

Answer 2

33 years old is a nice age to turn things right again. I am 33 years old and I have used a lot of drugs in the past. I still notice some of the effects, like memory loss and concentration problems. But I managed to get my life under control by breaking my habits and not making it a secret to my surroundings. If you involve other people around you, you reach out for help, which you will receive because you are sticking out your hand for help. Otherwise you will drown in your own little world and be eternally confronted with your inside darkest secrets. It is never too late to change for the good and forget about your past and try to stimulate yourself by doing small positive steps. I do have to warn you though, if you don't start doing sports to achieve some discipline, you won't survive on the long run. You will need to do extensive sports to get the toxics out of your body and to think clearly in your head again. It will make you look good too, a nice bonus, I should say.

Answer 3

Killing yourself will make your family hurt more deeply than you can imagine. I know. My son is dead now four years. he was in to drugs / drink as a teen. Died at age 21.

Please try rehab. also you most likely need to be on an anti depressant right after you are clean-- to balance your brain chemistry.

Get yourself to a good rehap and really work the program.
I know there is a place that puts a person in a drug induced coma so that the withdrawl is happening while you sleep.

Actually the key is to replace one habit (the drugs) with another habit, a good habit. Find your passoin........art, music, work, exercise, writting. You just have one life to live and you don't want to live it in a drugged stupor.

Narcotics anomonous is a good group to join.

You have choices and you have been making the wrong ones.
Change your friends. Change your habits and start new ones

This is hard on your family, but harder on yourself and harder on them if you end it all.



God Bless You!

There is hope for you believe it. My friend started pot in 4th grade and used it and every drug known to man until he was 31. He was in treatment several times, but it didn't seem to work.

Finally , he went to the VA(he had been in the Navy for a short time age 19-21) and this program came at just the time he needed it.He was shooting coke and was afraid he would die. I remember one thing they told him in his group therapy. They said"Make a list of all the things you want to do in your life and list 20 things". He did. One of them was to view a shuttle launch live in Florida. A week later he went back, and each person read their list. His counselor then asked why he hadn't done any of the things he wanted. He said"Because I didn't have the money." They asked why... He said,"I can't keep a job". They asked why. He said "Because I use drugs."

They then said, "Half your life is over and you have the other half to use drugs and never realize your dreams, or you can quit drugs and try to realize your list. He had never thought that half his life was past. He said, "I knew then if I was going to do something, it had to be now". So he stayed with their program and he has been sober since 1984.

He has a great job and is a runner and he races motorcycles in competition.!!

It's never too late to start your life. But please DON'T think that taking your life would help anyone. I moderate in a grief chat called The Compassionate Friends. Every week we see the results on family of suicides. It's unbelieveable.It's a pain that never goes away.
You are important, your life is important.
Please think about it and please write me. My email is [e-mail]

I care.

Answer 5

if you are really tired of hurting your family, you will do something about your problem. if you kill yourself, you have created another problem for them because now they have to figure out how to pay for your funeral. besides that you will not get to Heaven if you kill yourself. you have to make it up in your mind that you want to stop getting hi and go and seek some kind of help. to do this will require a lifestyle change, you have to do something different,you can't do things the same way you have always done them. my suggestion is that you try Christ and find a Christian rehabilitation program and change your surroundings. look up the definition of what it means to be a man, a husband, a father, a friend whichever applies and start with working on those things. also look up integrity and start learning how to be a man of your word. stop leaning and depending on others to help you and do things for you. the Bible says if a man doesn't work, he doesn't eat. if you are working but spending all of your money getting hi then you are definitely depending on someone else to take care of you, and that's not what a man does. also look up respect because obviously you're disrespecting yourself and those around you. God Bless You

Answer 6

Most importantly, your addictions could become fatal. Rehab can work for you! Even if you don't think you can do it... just give it a shot.

Imagine how much more pain and trouble you'd cause if your family loses you? I really feel for you and hope that you make the right choice.

Take care of yourself and best wishes.

Answer 7

don't do that. I know it seems hard to believe, but life can always be worse. I have no opportunity for a future of any kind, but I just live day to day. I think that the key to overcoming addiction is to get addicted to something else. (golf, guitar, art, writing, ) there are numerous possibilities. But most importantly, I think you should find an option for "extensive" rehab. You need to prove to yourself that you can live without drugs. Also, there are people who want you alive

Don't do it if you feel you have caused too much pain already, then think about the pain that would cause. Ask for help and your family will be there for you.
