Relapsed on Fentanyl and lost my job, lost everything. Should I go to detox or go cold turkey on my own? Btw I'm not attention seeking or anything like that. Just can't think for myself at the moment and need some solid advice. Idk what to do...

Go to detox. Just stopping using (temporarily) doesn't help you deal with the wanting it.

We use drugs for a reason, and a good detox facility will help you learn how to deal with it when you are triggered to use, and to help you learn you deserve and are capable of a far better life than being shackled to Fentanyl.

@Mamapolo2016 Thank u so much. I agree. Inspire of my recent failures, I still have dreams and hope for my life.
@alainc2490 Then go to detox and concentrate on success. I reached six years sober (alcohol) on the 18th. Indescribably better.

@Mamapolo2016 I dream of how everything would be different if I were to get clean.
@alainc2490 Everything IS different. But if you just stop cold turkey, YOU will be the same, only not currently using.

@alainc2490 Don't dream. Create goals. Look at where you want to be and where you currently are. Figure out how to build a bridge using goals to get to that point. There's help to do this and people who've walked the road before you. They can keep you out of danger but you have to agree to the journey.
