You’re already way ahead of where a lot of us were. Many of us spent years stuck in addiction. You’re 20 and you already know you want something different, and that matters.
Friends your age will come. For now, it can really help to spend some time getting to know yourself, what you want from life, what feels right for you, and what you deserve. Your worth isn’t up for debate.
Stay close to people in recovery who have some time. Ask questions. Share what you’re going through. Sometimes one conversation or one story is what changes your life.
