I'm addicted to oxy and I need help! I've tried everything I can do but I always do it again. My willpower is terrible and every time I see it or anything I need to have it! Thank you to anyone who replies!

Quitting cold turkey is probably your best bet. The fact that you want to quit means you're halfway there, although the second half is always more rocky.
When you see it, try closing your eyes and counting to ten. Think of the worst things in the world to you, whether that's your history teacher or dead kittens, but not something that would trigger a huge craving, like a traumatic incident. Thinking happy thoughts only reminds you of the high, so that would backfire. Try making a paper chain, where every day you go without it you put a link of one color on, and every day that you do get high on oxy, choose a different color. It'll help you keep track.

Quitting cold turkey can be really difficult to do. If you're trying to break an addiction that way you really have to believe that you can do it, you need to erase the thoughts from your mind. There is not trying to quit, you have to go out there and do it. It's much easier said than done, and you may hit a few bumps in the road but that's very common and extremely normal. However, you shouldn't have to think that you're alone here, if you need to reach out for help, by all means do it. We're all here for you, and I'm sure your friends are as well. :)

Hey man, I've seen a lot of shows about drug addiction. I realize that it is hard to stop doing what you're doing.
Quitting cold turkey is DANGEROUS. I would strongly suggest getting drug treatment. I don't care how old you are, it's best to rehabilitate it now while you're still young.

Well, cold turkey, although effective, isn't easy. Withdrawal from almost any drug is NOT fun. Nonetheless, give it a go. If you feel like it's too much for you, ask someone to help you, perhaps an aunt, uncle, friend, etc. to get you drug therapy to get over your addiction. Hope it works out well :)

Don't go cold turkey from Oxy. Go to rehab and refuse Methadone treatment if possible. Methadone will easily get you addicted on itself and it is way worse than Oxy.
It will be a hard road but with support from family and a treatment facility you can do it.

Hey man I was addicted to oxy and actually did get back off of it, so don't worry even though you feel like you can't do it you really can. Most of what I want to say to you is kind of personal, so lemme know if you want me to pm you after because imma leave a lot out.
So I was pretty deep into an oxy addiction where I would just say fcuk school and spend the day getting jammed and finding ways to get money or find people to cuff me some. I got to a point where it was realllllyyy bad and my closest friends were disgusted with me when they would rarely see me. But I found out one day sitting through the excruciating withdrawals paid off in the end because if I could deal with a few hours of withdrawals, that's one less dose that I have to take and the reward from waiting is much better because as bad as this sounds you feel like you "deserve" blowing the next one. If you get into this habbit, over a few weeks the withdrawals will be far less painful and far less frequent. Just keep spreading your usage out further and further until your down to a point that your comfortable with stopping all usage.
If you smoke, the withdrawals are much easier if you smoke some good when you wake up and then when you're coming down off of your oxy highs. (idk if I'm allowed to say that?)
Definitely tell me if you want me to pm you because I'm leaving out a lot of shit that you probably wouldn't want people to know.
EDIT - by the way, don't try cold turkey unless you REALLLLLY feel comfortable with yourself. When I tried, I just went through the fucking worst withdrawals you could imagine, and ended up relapsing anyway, so it all went to waste in the end.
