No matter what do not ise
Keep it simple.
Journal your gratitudes every morning. This ensures our tough moments don't last days. That is the best advice I can give you a period stay active as it helps rebalance are hormonal imbalances created during active addiction. Eat healthy, same idea.
It really can be THIS simple if we allow it to be but me, I prefer complicated so meetings are very necessary. It's life or death. And quality of life. Longevity, legacy, all that stuff.
Find meeting ask for numbers and use the numbers when you have a hard time writing about it for me I do a lot of writing when Iām struggling with drama. I have also put myself into inpatient outpatient and aftercare program so I did grief and trauma groups. Plus I am doing a program now thatās a year along. Thatās called Dbt and a one on one therapist has helped me, good luck and I hope you find what works for you
I just joined this app this morning.
Same place as you.
I don't even know how to update my profile picture to tell you the truth.
Let's wish each other.
We need compassion.
It's mught be hard.
But it's better.

Going to try God.
Bless you sister
Imagine everything going well!
Just donāt pick up no matter what! Unless itās the phone to call support you can do this . It not easy but it gets easier Iām living proof I wasted 27 years of my life in and out of prison all due to heroin addiction. You are a beautiful person and deserve better than what you have put yourself through. I believe in you stay strong my friend
We all had a day one. Some of us many It gets better and easier in my experience Use the phone WE do recover
Stay busy
Pray
Imagine everything going well, getting better, really see it - it Will happen if you stay sober - what are your dreams in sobriety? Focus on those - you can achieve them - do not give up, give in - wait one more hour, minute, second until the urge passes because it will, I promise
Chang your people place and things. You can't continue to hang with the same people at the same places doing the same things and expect change. Go to meetings get a sponsor. Take one day at a time or even one minute at a time if that's what it takes. Good luck love you got this
