Free but on ankle monitor

I have been out of jail 6 days today and sober a lil over 3 months today from opiates and meth. I had 9 years of sobriety before I relapsed 4 years ago. I am currently on the electronic monitoring program in Sauk county for the next 10 months and only allowed to go to work, the jail to check, my medical & aoda appointments. Oh and two hours of shopping a week lol I'm really struggling because I don't start working for 2 weeks and I just moved out of my home of 3 years (my roommates didn't tell me till the day after I got out so that was a bit of a setback!) into a pay by the week motel..which is a little bit triggering as is. I'm just struggling only having resources of Old Friends for help and support . Who are still using who I'm TRYING to stay away from BUT feeling really isolated! I'm in the Baraboo area if anybody wants to reach out. On a positive note I get to see my daughter for the first time in 6 months this evening!
