Im tired of it. sure I still get high, but now I get really depressed. almost instantly. and now its starting to have an affect on my physical appearance (pickig, sores,bruises). I really want ad need professional help. I just don't know how to go about it. I live phx az. any info is appreciated.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Recovery from an addiction is difficult and it would be even harder for you to do without the support of your friends and family.
If you don't want to involve all of your friends or family ,then you should pick at least a few persons that you can trust and speak to.
They will help not condemn you.
Then you can go to a nearby drug addiction counselling centre and speak to a counsellor.
If you are unsure where to go, speak to your doctor, he or she would be able to refer.
Though it would be difficult, it is important to try to free yourself from this addiction.
I hope this helps
