Where I live is rural, theres no AA or anything like that and I cant afford going to rehab. The only thing I can think of is getting into bad trouble so I can clean up while they have me in jail. I've never been able to control myself very good. I just have no stregnth. I've been told to tell my friends and family and they can help you but they are either way messed up themselves or I could never let them know that I even do stuff like this in the first place. I'm out of school now otherwise I would ask them to help me and should of done that before that was over with. My moms a total drunk and my dad is just as bad. I live with my boyfriend, who doesn't know I do these things. He works almost 24-7 and I'm pretty sure he'd dump me if he knew. But the more time that goes by the less I sleep the less I eat and the more I feel like garbage. Maybe on the internet because thats my only connection to other people besides my connect. I feel like such a loser. How can I make MYSELF stop before I ruin my life. Thanks and that was way hard to say outloud.

I found a website for you: http://interventionamerica.org/
Check it out. It offers assistance finding free rehab centers all over the country. It might give you phone numbers to call and addresses of places that no doubt will help you. Do it!
Good luck.

Anyway if you are talking about alcohol, then you are going to need someone to give you support , to remind you that you are trying to avoid it. But if you are on drugs in that case there are 2 conditions. If you have developed psychological dependence only in that case a strong motivative, and supportive friend may be able to help you. But if you have progressed to physical dependance, then you must go to a doctor or a rehab centre. . . But it is better to go to a doctor or rehab whatever your condition is. Because they will be able to help you better than a friend. . .

You need to tell your boyfriend about this because you can't deal with it on your own. If it's so bad you think you need treatment then your boyfriend must have noticed something, surely.
