Brand new to all of this

Today marks 4 days clean. Ive been here before but still a great accomplishment and i feel good about it. My support system is little to none right now but i am in a recovery program ( outpatient) and currently being treated with suboxone ( which i hate ) ive kept my addiction from everyone these past 4 years. To embarrassing to talk about just yet. Well, heres to another day!

Welcome to talking Sober William! I found my support system right here and I hope it can be that for you too. Congrats on your clean time. It’s one day at a time for all of us. Keep working your personal path of recovery friend. We’re in this together and for me that realization has been the difference between failures in the past and success now. Like you say you are being treated with suboxone. For now it works right? Keep in contact with the medical professionals that treat you. take some advice and communicate how you feel yourself. In time you might want to quit it, for now I’d stick with your treatment plan. Wishing you all success friend.

Thank you for reaching out! Definitely one day at a time for me. I feel good about recovery and turning my life back around. This addiction has been full blast for the past 4 years for me. Ive never done a drug so hard and so long. Im hopeful and fully committed though. I can already feel alot of support from this app and the community associated with it!

I have 73 days sober. Very new hear as well! I’m not sure how to maneuver through this: like how to reply to the topic. Not to individuals!
Any input is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

The arrow button on the previous post means you will reply to that poster. Some people scroll to the top and reply to the original poster. Or you can just reply to the topic by the bottom of the thread.

It’s my first day and I only have about 18hrs under my belt. I have faith we can all do this together. I live on a reservation, so I know how it feels to have a lack of support. Good Karma.

Welcome Billy. An old member here, also on subs, mentioned a few times that he found a lot of support on Reddit as well. Might give a look around there. I believe he said they had a pretty active subs community there. Every little bit of support can help!!
