What is the best way to kick an IV heroin addiction? I’m so afraid of withdrawal, but I’m done with this junk.?

Question by Nicco: What is the best way to kick an IV heroin addiction? I’m so afraid of withdrawal, but I’m done with this junk.?
I started out snorting powder, like maybe once a week, and after a few months I was shooting up. Now it’s been a few more months and I’m currently using every day.

I’m out of money and I’m having to ask my friends and family for money just to buy smack.

I feel pathetic and I don’t have a job and I just sit around all day high.

I use clean gear every time so I don’t have AIDS or anything cause I also use alone and only alone.

Anyways, how can I get off this shit and get my life back together?

I know if I start getting terrible withdrawals I’ll just go shoot up to make the pain go away. Is there anyway to make it easier? Should I go to a hospital or something?

My family already thinks I’m just a selfish junkie, who just uses them for money, but the truth is I love them but my body like compels me to beg for cash. I’m still the same person, I just need to get off this stuff to get back to normal.

Any suggestions? I really need to know what to do. Thank you so much.

there is no way to avoid withdrawl. the best way to make it through is rehab. you have to go to a rehab center. you could die from the withdrawl without the help of a center.

please do it. please. you dont know who you would affect by doing it. if i had a chance to go back and tell my mother this i would. sadly i was too young to know what she was doing. please go get help. plese.
