Close Heroin Addiction & Recovery

I'm 23 and I've been addicted to heroin for over three and a half years now, stuck in that vicious cycle...I had a lot of success in my life and a beautiful son and lost everything. Now I'm basically homeless, jobless, broke, literally starving and depressed beyond means... very hopeless... I want to stop using but feel like I have nothing to live for so what's the point in quitting, and I can't deal with withdrawal, it makes me want to kill myself.

Treatments

Narcotics Anonymous (NA) Working / Worked

I love NA. The support is wonderful.

Residential Treatment Center Not Working

Didn't work, no insurance or means to try again.

Suboxone Somewhat Helpful

Suboxone makes me feel great, keeps me motivated and a healthy, normal, productive person. The only problem is it's too expensive to get and when I run out pf it and start WD I relapse.
