I just graduated from Shamaia house (rehab) in Vallejo. I really want to go to SLE but my sister is due any day now and needs help with her older child. Although I have no triggers my cravings are slowly coming back. I'm trying to stay strong for my own daughter, I made huge progress and I'm getting her back in few months.
I just moved to Oakland, I don't know anyone here and my family doesn't understand my disease. How do you guys cope with cravings? Meth was my choice of drug.

NA meetings. Zoom? Get plugged into a recovery program and keep sharing.

Will do :wink:

The transition from rehab to “real life” is very difficult for so many. I agree with mr Bradford up there. Meetings and immersing yourself in recovery. Remember why you’re here.

Zoom meetings, okay I just downloaded an app called: Aa/NA live recovery meetings—awesome! Google NA speaker tapes—want/work at recovery as much as you did at getting high! Good luck and God(good orderly direction) Bless!!! :hugs:🫶:pray:t2:❤‍🩹:dove::+1:t2:

Your actually doing one of the things that helped me a lot right now, reach out, talk to other addicts, I never thought I'd b clean as long as I have but I was OVER IT and if u are I'm sure you'll have no problem staying clean. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!
