How Can I Get Help With Addiction?

Question by : How can I get help with addiction?
I am not new to drugs, I have had my fun and overall have a good sense of what I was doing, and never had a problem.
I work full time and go to school full time, which has been very stressful between VA consistently not paying the school or my rent, my wife refusing to work over 20 hrs a week, supernatural car problems and everything in between.
I tried spice about 2 years ago and now it has grown into a flat out addiction and I have no idea when that happened or how, I find myself lying to my wife about buying the stuff, and I go to great lengths such as donating plasma to afford it. Whenever I try going sober its like my chemistry in my brain changes the way I think where “It’s ok to lie, they don’t understand what you go through, you need and deserve this”, then when I smoke it I feel like a dirtbag, like I am a weak person with no self control, all I want when I am high is to do things right and be a better person, but when I am not high it seems that the only thing that will bring happiness is smoking another bowl.
It’s to the point where I don’t find fun or joy in anything, I have been so used to giving up my hobbies/freetime/ for others who don’t even appreciate it that I wouldn’t know what to do with myself if I had it, the only release on a day to day basis is when I smoke, which does not “fix” the problem, just makes you more numb to it.
I have been wanting/trying to quit, but when I try to talk to my wife about it she just gets angry and dishes out threats or how I am such a bad person, and shows no support at all. I am not a bad person, in fact sometimes my service to others and selflessness have cost me dearly, I have no family and no one to turn to, I need help from someone kind and caring who knows what this kind of thing is like, where is a good online resource without going to a clinic that will end my work and school careers? (in Utah, a former addict is worse than a serial killer and if your employers find out about it, you wont HAVE a job).

What Should Making “amends” Mean When Someone Gets Clean From a Drug Addiction?…?

Question by tihspidaru: What should making “amends” mean when someone gets clean from a drug addiction?…?
11 years ago i tried to help a long time childhood friend that was in a rut back in our home town…we grew up together so i felt that i could help him…i bought him a plane ticket from michigan to arizona so that he could get a teaching position as they were plentiful there…i lent/sent him money to get things settled and so he could get a place to stay when he got in arizona…the very first night he was in arizona he stole my car…i didn’t see him until four days later when he showed up at my door looking like total crap and without my car…to find out, he had gone on a crack and meth binge blowing all of the money he had and the money i had left him…he had “sold” my car to get more drugs…the car was recovered wrecked and with total engine damage…me and a friend took him to a rehab place where he could live…he would have to work and pay them from what he made and go through all their programs…well, in no time he got kicked out of that for not following the rules (not getting high)…i only heard from him a few times when he would try and con money out of me and ask me for a ride…now 11 years later he finally contacts me telling me he has his life together and has been clean for 7 years and is getting married, is getting his masters degree, has a 4 bedroom house, and 2 cars…he has apologized and said he needed to make “amends” with me…well, i am very happy he has his life together…this person basicaly ripped me off and cost me thousands of dollars…since that time i have went on disability due to neck and back injuries and now live a very meager life in an efficiency apartment with no car and absolutely no extra money to even be able to go to a movie once a month…is sorry supposed to make up what he did to me?…i am happy for him, but should he not pay me back the money that his “drugging” cost me?…i forgive him, but how is just saying sorry supposed to make everything right?…would it be wrong for me to ask that he pay me back, especialy when he is doing so well and i am not now?…thank you for any advice you can give me…and i don’t need to hear how stupid i was for helping him when he had “used” my generosity before!…thanks, i already know that!…lol…
