Thank you, Nanette, for your reply. That is extremely helpful information to have as I've recently spent pretty much my last dime trying to stave off withdrawal for another night. Do you know what my next step should be? What criteria would I need to meet to receive methadone? I never considered this until I realized that if I don't do this I will spend my waking hours focusing on how to scrape together enough money to buy enough oxycodone to get high "one more time" rather than focusing on school or my family while driving myself deeper into debt and closer to losing everything. I also have a buddy who is considering going with me tomorrow (I was just going to drive to Bay Area Treatment to see what I could learn) but he's afraid of his information being disclosed as we are both in school to enter the medical field and do not want to be disqualified. Any other information you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
