any help please

Ok so I finally got caught. I am scared to death. I called in a prescription yesterday and when I went to pick it up they said it was fraud. This morning I got a call from an investigator asking me to call him back. I am so scared. I have tried to quit and never could and now it's too late. Any advice would be much appreciated!! The prescription was for norco

HI......you need to call the investigator back......dont admit to any thing until you talk to a public defender or a lawer but if you dont call there going to come to the house you need to address this b/4 it gets worst they will probably charge you then provide a public defender to represent you in court thats how it works I dont think your going to get out of this ......Good luck...........Gnarly

If you really want to get your life back then do what is right.  You got caught, they know it is you, the gig is up.  You will be given a public defender if you cant afford one.  It's time to come clean~~

Cant seem to get to c the responses besides the1st 3to show.NO DONT JUST CALL HIM AND COME CLEAN THATS DUMB.U say u cant afford an attorney.Well u need to beg,borrow,pawn,sell whatever it takes to get a lawyer.Ur an addict and as much bad that comes with that we r nothing if not resourceful.Take out a loan,call ur parents,put off bills whatever it takes.DONT GO onto this situation unarmed.Dont admit anything directly to the police.This is ur1st time n legal trouble?Ive read a lot about this.U will probably get probation.If possible check n2rehab that will b what a lawyer will tell u to do.I get it u have kids,job etc. Right now u have to focus on this.U can always find another job if need be.Depending on what type of job a lot of them have assistance with helping employees w/addiction.Everyone thinks rehab and they cant afford it.Well u can get in free n a lot of places or vitually free(sliding scale).In Florida I know there is a detox center u go to stay there for medical detox.They give out huge lists of rehabs that take people n for free u sit and call til u find a place that will take u for free.The detox cost$60for a week but they keep u until u can get intp a place if u want them to.I know they have those types of places across the country.Get n rehab,get a lawyer(check w/assistance w/that too they offer nationwide assistance w/lawyer fees.Call&talk to a public defender if thats the last resort.Explain the situation ask what to do.Dont sit there waiting for them to come knocking chances r they will at ur home or work.there r lots of ways to get help.with this.be proactive

allaboutcc you are in SERIOUS denial about what you've been doing.  It's time to face what's going on and deal with this.  And most importantly, it's time to get clean.  You talked before about needing the meds to be able to carry your child?  And the Dr. gave them to you for that?  I don't understand - what I do know is it is TIME to face this.  STOP running and take responsibility for what you've done.  Most of us made really BAD decisions when we were high and you can't just walk away from owning what you've done and dealing with the consequences.  We don't get to do that.  We have to try and make amends for our behavior.

Finally, I honestly believe that once you face this head on, you're going to feel a lot of relief.  You've been carrying this for way too long.  I'm sorry if this seems harsh but you need to hear this.  As strange as this will sound, this legal situation may very well save your life.
