I thought I was doing well. I thought I was starting to be happier, but the past few weeks have made me feel just like I did when I wasn't sober. I feel like I'm losing my mind, and I know I'm losing the fight against the voices in my head. I feel really alone, and I'm wondering if anyone else feels like this as well.

I’m only 4 days in off opioids and it’s crazy hard, just remember you’re not alone I’m working full time and it’s incredibly hard, we’re all here for you, keep going it will get better like it did before, idk what you got sober from, but it’s a hard battle either way

You got this. They aren't winning they're just putting up a fight. You're stronger then you give yourself credit for. There is a video on YouTube by teal Scott aka teal swan called how to raise your frequency and vibration that I've listened to over a hundred times since I found it. Best 15 minute listen there is for me

Carrie, thanks for sharing your struggle. Yes of course I feel like the voices in my head are driving me crazy! But I learned to use the tools in AA.

  1. AA meetings and sharing my struggles with the group.
  2. Twelve Step work with my sponsor.
  3. Reaching out to my sober brothers & sisters.
  4. Service work to other recovering addicts and or charities.
  5. Prayer & meditation to override the negative thoughts and emotions. .
  6. Journaling.
    I’m here if you want to talk.

Always here for you! Our recovery depends on supporting each other. See, we are all crazy, just not all crazy on the same day :grin:
