Thank you for taking the time to reply. I have not tried meetings yet as this is my first step to actually try to be clean. I dont have any friends or family that use so that will help. Just this one person that i found on a dating app that i hope to NEVER go back to
First of all … Welcome
First step … you know what “they” say about those.
No matter your poison… it’s TRUE!
Look at us. We are all here, on a journey, wanting to change our shitty habits and do better. You are here too
You will get through it if you want to, depends on you.
This community will support you, encourage you and teach you so much, if you Read and PARTICIPATE!
We got you … keep showing up and believe in yourself ( you deserve everything)
Thank you. I hate feeling the cycle of over stimulated and then being a shut in until im not under the influence. I really want to be with my family out in the living room but am going through WD, bloodshot eyes, raspy voice, weird arm movements and hand tweaks and irritable you name it. The cons outweigh the pros in every aspect of this addiction. If your reading this and thinking about trying this drug please don’t. I thought i would try it like once and not do it again… A little harder said than done. Will post a before and after picture when the time comes because i look like total crap right now
Holy shit … I just re-read that and it I sound OLD AF!!!
First part good
Last part … meh.
I getcha .,
show up here and let these L T’s ( Long Timers) make sense, cuz they do
Will stay active here. I have the app for this and will check in all the time. Hoping this place can be like my second family and help me keep myself in check. I just have to know that im in control of me and nooone else can choose being clean or sober but me.
I think you mean this list @Girlinterrupted ?
And I like to add this as well @NewBeginning1 What's YOUR plan?
And welcome here ofcourse! This app helped me a lot with getting rid of my own bad habits.
Take your time to chime in here! It’s worth the reading time
You’re the best, lovely! Thank you!!
Dem damn datings apps!
Hopefully you can nip this one in the bud without too much difficulty, since you started only recently.
I have never used crystal meth but I have heard it is extremely addictive.
Make sure you put lots of ongoing careful thoughts into your strategy to quit and stay clean. Talking about it on here is a great strategy!
Niiiice
You flushed it??? Awesome and safe
Ive flushed mutible drugs. Why give something to someone that brings yourself harm. AND its quick and gone
I looove this technique
On lunch from work. Half way through. Im better mentally when im working keeping my mind busy. Hope you are doing good.
Hell yeah. Keep fighting, you deserve to live free
Keeping busy helps me too Glad you’re starting to feel better mentally
Day 4. Cant sleep. Cravings are very strong. Mental clarity is there but the urges are very strong
Have you considered meetings? Like narcotics anonymous?
I’m new to recovery and it’s so no easy especially when that’s all your used too me and my boyfriend looking at 2 weeks today sober we could use sober friends also
Day one here! My last use was Monday Sept 30 at 1:30am…today the emotions are wild. I’m sad. I’m lonely. I’m mad. I hate myself. But I DO KNOW I WANT TO GET CLEAN
I hope you’re doing better. I know this week is going to be very hard
Update: Relapsed again and now working on myself(Again) i hate this viscous cycle. This time i think ive truly had enough. I had to call in from work yesterday because of this drug. I was shaking and tweaking. Its been over 24 hours since last use and i hope im okay to work in a few hours. I got good sleep last night after being awake for 5 days. I have to remember ODAAT and take things easy. The problem is i start feeling better and in my head i think i can handle just a little bit more. Have to remember how bad the experiece is and play the tape forward to not use again
