It's a nightmare, isn't it?  I can remember being on the couch, staring at the ceiling, thinking "Oh my God, HOW did this happen?"  

I was so stuck.  

It didn't seem like there was any way out, except maybe killing myself.

The only thing that seemed less possible that using like I was using, was not using.

There is life after using.  Really good life.  For me, and many others I know in recovery, it's a life that's better than ever before.

You do need help.  Early recovery is no time to be a lone ranger.  I happen to think in-patient rehab is great (I did it twice), but many people get clean and sober with AA and/or NA.  

Stop keeping secrets.  Your secrets are keeping you sick.
