I don't think it really matters where you decide to get sober, just do it. I have 2 years off the **** as of 11/27, and stayed in the same town I got started in doing the damn stuff.
What you need to do is get yourself a sponsor, or someone you can confide in, start going to meetings, and take it from there.
If the people places and things are really bothering you that much, then by all means move, but what is gonna make a trip out of state any different? You will find those same people places and things in the next town too.
You have to want this 100%. I wish you luck buddy.
Come to Phoenix, we have ALOT of sobriety and many meetings, and several good rehab facilities here.

I don't think it really matters where you go- the important thing is to go and give it your all. Meth is a hard drug to kick and from what I understand - few people get off of it on the first few tries. It isn't uncommon to go through rehab several times. The only reason I can think of to go through rehab in a different city would be if you think it would increase your chances of success. Can you talk it over with the counselors. Good Luck.

Usually a treatment center followed by an out of town halfway house is the best.They will monitor who you call and stay in touch with.If it's inpatient treatment then it doesn't matter if it's in your town or not.However after you are done it is so important to follow up w/ a halfway house.They keep you strong.It's just too much of a temptation to be in the same town w/ ex dealers and friends.Some would say you are just escaping from your troubles if you leave town , but they don't know what it's like to try to kick this drug.And they don't know how relentless these dope fiends from our past can be . They never let you go.So you have to be the one to leave.I had to become a truck driver so I would never be home, and I can't use on the road.Or else for me I just couldn't escape from those old habits.Good luck.Also it is not true that once you get clean your old using friend will want nothing to do w/ you.

if you go to one in a different city,they are more apt to keep an eye on you, also you wont have the connections to drug dealers, i mean, yes you could find some no matter where you go...but if you pick an out of town area, that is rather secluded, you should increase your chances of getting off drugs. also, sadly the people who know you as a user,as i found out when i quit doing drugs, who call themselves friends, as soon as you clean up, will want nothing to do with you, and theyre not worth trying to be friends with. You will be able to establish new relationships with people who care more for you than what you might be able to give them. Good luck.

It depends on various factors of course. I would recommend that you do it in your city. The reason you wish to do it in another city is to avoid being 'seen'. Own up to it. Solicit help from friends, family, and coworkers. You chances of getting clean and staying that way will be far better. Plus it will be easier for all the people that love you to visit!

good luck but it doesn't matter where you go you have to make up in your mind that enough is enough and staying clean is your goal and crystal meth is a drug that destroy lives and you need a strong support group that looks to you as a winner and not a user

I would go to another city that way you are not surrounded by the same influences as before and maybe you can have a fresh start in a New City.
