Get back in there and get serious bother. This is a life and death deal. Be grateful for another chance. Not everyone gets one.

Been there. I'm up to 5 serious relapses and feel stronger in sobriety after getting back on track. I know the detox/ rehabs can get redundant, but try to learn /take something from each time and adapt that to the ole sobriety toolbox. Good luck brudda

Rehab / a treatment center program is a great way to reset physically and emotionally. Don’t give up and please follow through with getting into a program. There are a lot of options out there, especially in the Phoenix area.

Tyler, I am sorry to hear this. I tend to agree with what most everyone jas said, Chris B however makes a solid point, toward triggers. Identifying our triggers is important. Finding victory over and through these triggers is huge.

My trigger is pain. The hopelessness that comes with that. Pain that never stops. Physical pain, excruciating pain. Short of diet, exercise and very limited medicine ain't a whole lot I can do about that. My drug of choice leaves me with very little hope in anything but death in regard to that pain so for me it was a matter of learning to once again live with it as I had for almost 20 years or continuing to inject knowing I would leave this earth early, leaving my children early and having cut short the purpose of my higher power in my life.

I will say that 30 days was not enough for me. I completed 60 days inpatient and was going for 90 though that option ended up not being afforded me.

Ill be praying fpe your recovery. Just remember that although people can be quite forgiving, everyone has their own bottom line and this is for each individual to determine within themselves. Salvage what you can and carry forward smartly, sober. You do "got this" you also have to want it as bad as you have ever wanted anything in life.
