You are NOT a failure; maybe a work-in-progress; maybe a humble beginning, even; but no failure! You have successfully admitted your problem and successfully asked for help. Those are two things that even the strongest of men have failed to do over and over so many times. Find your strength. It grows from the pain of changing. You are amazing!.

Why are you feeling that way? What is triggering the desire to use, you need to try to identify why you have that desire and eliminate it, even if it's the people you're around they need to be removed from your life if you truly want to quit, especially if they don't feel the need to change!
Hey Darion, buddy first and foremost you're not a failure at all , your a warrior and a strong person with determination to beat this addiction which is what has led you to reach out with what you can and have and that is a great start. I'm battling my addiction to meth everyday and have been going on 17 years now and I'm about to be 33 in a month. It's definitely not easy especially when you're doing it along and it's okay to need help and support in this transition and transformation we are seeking and have been wanting for so long and just don't know where to start when we have been at every start line there could be of wanting to quit. This time for me it's different in how I feel and what I truly want and to break free from this disease and beat this addiction and not let it beat me as it's done for years , I'm giving this all I got of me in this step to becoming sober and recovery, and if I can be just a little source of light of support or hope or give you or anyone in need of just someone to actually relate and care and to help the best I can I am and will be that the best I can be and it give me my inspiration and will power to continue to spread my help and support to anyone in need as I'm looking and needing the same myself, one day one step at a time is my apart of my story and it's still being told one day I hope I can be a walking testimony to anyone seeking support help or guidance to anyone out there that is struggling with any addiction with no judgement at all of any kind all love and support and encouragement, we all need that in the recovery life and sober life and that's okay. Keep your head up buddy I care I'm here if you need to talk or support even if you don't know how or where or what to start at. I'm proud of you for taking the step and reaching out to working on your goals in this journey or sobriety. You got this one day one step at a time remember and be patient and kind to yourself as you can.
I care very much whether you succeed in your sobriety and your more than welcome to message me anytime
Hey! Last time I did cocaine was in 2018. It's gonna be a lot of suck at first. If you speak up like this at physical 12 step meetings, people will offer help. I'd dig into your cocaine addiction and see where it started. It took me over a month after detox to accept alcoholism was my root problem.
Hi Darion, my name is Ken you can call me anytime 567-801-9050 I have been in your shoes and would be happy to talk to you and see if I can be of help buddy.
Hi Darion, as many have said, you are not a failure and Iāve said/felt the very same thing. You are struggling and that you want help, are reaching out is a big first step. It sucks being an addict whether itās alcohol, cocaineā¦.but it is what it is. Weāre all here for that reason and here to support each other in this struggle. You are not alone. Try a NA meeting or counseling, speak your mind here, get it out there. Just saying what youāre feeling helps and feels good. Please donāt entertain the idea of suicide. Nobody wants that for you. Your mind can be a dark place. Get out of it as best as you can. Do something that makes you happy. I wish you nothing but the very best. Hang in there and donāt give up on yourself. You deserve to live a free and peaceful life.
