Day 12 - Moving Forward

I am new to the forum, I am currently on day 12 of being sober. I have been on and off pain pills for the past two years. I can honestly say that my addiction cost me almost everything. I’m starting over again on my journey to soberiety and feel good that I have made it this far. However, I really felt like at this point it would be starting to get easier. Today has so far been a bad day mentally with cravings. I’m just looking for any advice for how people deal with triggers and cravings.

Thanks for the advice!! I know I need to get to the root of why I started using in the first place, I’m struggling with that. There is no real obvious answer for me. But yehh I think it will help once I can figure that out. It’s good to know that the thoughts about using start to ease up some!
