You okay
I know how you feel Glenda I struggle with the same thing sometimes my loniness is just as bad as feeding my addiction both at the same time is overwhelming addiction is hard loniness is hard I'm picking my hard loniness it's safer
I’m here and been there. It’s possible to get through this with the right support though. Do you have a plan in place? Are you going to meetings, or is outpatient something you’re considering?
If not, I’d love to help you map one out. I’m in recovery too, and I know how terrifying those first steps can feel. Connection is what gets us through. DM me, love to help get you through this.

Try to get to a meeting, it's so hard being alone
Glenda, you have solutions to consider. I went to 2-3 meetings daily, no more loneliness:), 12 steps to the best of my ability multiple times, no more using drugs & alcohol. Service in the sober community, no more low self esteem, only gratitude and sense of purpose.
There is so much more over here in the sober life! Just waiting for you.
I’m here if you want to talk

Hi Glenda I personally have not struggled with meth but know a lot of people who have and do. It’s all the same to me. Asking God to take away the desire is one of the first things I would suggest to a Sponcee. Second would be finding a good sponsor who has a sponsor and going to meetings. Do whatever it takes so the miracle happens, and it does. Those promises are true in the 9th step. I choose to hang around now with people who have integrity. I know I can’t hang around anyone not serious about their sobriety. I had to clean house, get rid of old phone numbers for example.
We need each other us addicts. You’re helping me right now. I wish you well and I will certainly say a prayer for you.
Try to find something to get ur mind off of it and to keep u busy
