You just have to surround yourself with people who don't partake in whatever it is you're addicted to. You have to decide that either you are going to beat it, or you're going to stay the same and fade deeper into it. If you choose to overcome it, there's no room for weakness, you have to go forward 100% and not look back. A lot easier said than done, I know, I've been there.

Do whatever it takes, even if it means alienating yourself from everyone you've been associated with. It'll get harder before it gets better, but it'll be worth it...

You need a good friend, or some kind of support that doesn't do what you're addicted to..seriously, when you start freakin' out, you need someone to bury your car keys, cut the phone lines, and literally hold you down until it passes

sorry man but i say fuck rehab. I've never had the problem ,i can quit anything at anytime,BUT i have helped many people who have.... this is what i usually say/instruct 1.remember times in your live that you were so happy you wish it would never end ,(times you weren't using) 2. meditate....i know it is alot of bullshit but i don;t mean your typical meditation , i mean where you will lose all time and reality and come to like the next day.....im serious it's possible 2.(cont.) when im in a fucked up situation(which i have been in for months,me and the fiancee were ripped apart and can't see each other) i go to a local climbing are with a secluded ledge about a a thousand feet up....the view is amazing......i sit there and play the didje.and meditate while playing for hours ,i have gone more than a day before(at the start of this shit)all though the night and the next morning , when you o that long you will know when to stop... it is a possibly extreme way to come to terms with the outside world and how most ,well all problems are soo trivial.....i can't quite explain how it can help these things but it just does....if had some certain mental things that i can't even get into (almost went completely insane,that all I'll say)and i did that for the first time i went for over a day and i came out very humbled and with a happiness to be part of such beauty as this earth and well........lets just say the problem was fixed...... i have visited that mountain and that mental "world" i find there many times since then and every time i leave with a new appreciation of live..... hope that can help you..........it's save me live and my sanity many times......

many people overcome addictions every day..many people also die from addictions every day..i can't think of anyone who leads a long, healthy, fulfilling life while hooked on substances, it's pretty much up to you which way it ends. friends, doctors, and pills can only go so far.

Cold turkey. Get dumped on an island with nothing but food.get picked up in a month. I often thought I could make a living kidnapping people and dumping them on islands. Getting charged with kidnapping would suck though.

martial arts.
worked for scott weiland and matt from gnr...
hahaha..... I just saw that on a special on Velvet Revolver.
But on a serious note man... relocating doesnt do shit. its you who needs to change your bodys chemistry....
meditate.... ever hear of emotional freedom techniques>? Its a trance type of thing which involves tapping on your bodies energy meridians while reciting positive affirmations. Sounds corny man but it works for anything, even physical pain and disease. Check it out at http://www.emofree.com/ to research it. I used to do it with my mental health therapist, and used it along with AA to stop drinking.
