fallen deeper into drugs

    Hi
    I started taking a bit of this and a bit of that a number of years ago. Usually once or twice every couple of weeks. I always felt I was letting myself and my family down. I have tried numerous times to stop going out and instead challenging my self with football etc. However sooner or later a big night would be planned and bang.
    At this stage I reckon I am getting a real problem with the stuff (herbal coke) . I was just hoping someone on this forum can point me in the right direction of a therapist / councillor . Much appreciated

    Well done for identifying a problem!
    If you're talking about mephedrone ('herbal' cocaine) there's nothing herbal about it and it's also pretty addictive as you have noticed.
    Maybe contact:
    http://www.drugs.ie there is a free helpline on there 1800 459 459 and they hopefully will advise you from there.

    Best of luck OP.

    Scrap the big nights if you don't have the will power.

    Also, consider getting new friends if the ones you have are not willing to help you.

    I find that with drug use, people often urge you to take part, not because they think you should, but because it doesn't make them feel as bad if "everyone's doing it." Try to define the line between your real friends and "drinking buddies." There is a difference.

    I don't know your situation, so they're just a couple of ideas that come to mind.

    I wish you luck.
