It's only been 8 hours and I already feel myself craving that next hit and the rush that follows again. When is enough finally enough? I hate the constant cycle of feeling like I'm at the mercy of a pipe or a needle just to feel normal.

congrats on 8 hours, showing up for yourself at all is a big deal. sit with the feelings youre experiencing and identify any needs. find comfort in the discomfort and ask yourself if theres anything you can do that will help distract you even for a little bit. sobriety is full of possibility- follow your whims! explore what could be your new normal, stay strong, and remember- every minute sober is something to celebrate

It’s like tug of war in our minds and it’s so hard but pull harder against giving in to using. A lot of wanting to use is to relieve the discomfort of not using. You deserve a happy sober life and it’s hard to get there but you can do it. Please stay strong and fight for what you are worthy of
