How can i quit heroin when i live in a country which doesn't provide any of the typical usual meds? how can i fight this enemy alone & with nothing?

Counseling: The first step is to make a commitment to quit. Medications can help, but they aren't requried, and alone they're not enough. Seek addiction counseling. Change your circumstances - it's much harder to kick the habit if your friends are also addicted. Cocaine anonymous groups also help people with heroin addiction.
