Day 4 of my sobriety

I’m day 4 clean off meth. I’m new here. I recently had a relationship end which is one of the reasons for getting sober. Please no one tell me I gotta do it for me not the relationship cuz this I already know. I am getting clean for me first cuz I’m trying to learn to love myself again as well. I let my mental health and insecurities get the better of me. And while my newly separated person decides to keep using I’m choosing not to. I just wish I knew how I could work on myself so that when the time comes I can ask him for one more shot at making things right. I love him regardless of good or bad addiction or sober. He’s the healthiest relationship I ever had and I want him back so bad.

What you’re doing is amazing. Show this person you love just how happy and good your life can be without this drug that consumes you. You are on the right path. Keep up this journey.

Stay focused. Ive been clean off herion for 35 days and my husband was on meth. Once he seen me clean he went to a rehab for help. Just pray for him and hopefully he will see that he wants what you have. If he doesnt SET BOUNDARIES. YOU GOT THIS. HE WILL TOO

You are working on yourself by coming here and sharing, great job! For now just do you. Focus on where you’re going, not where you’ve been. In my experience eveytime I went back to show them how much better I was and it didnt end well. Stay on your path. We are glad your here…

Thank you all for the kind words. He wants me out I just don’t know where to go. I have no support system or know anyone. I left my state to go to his and left everything behind. I can’t work on myself and be under the same roof but I can’t afford to be out on my own. I don’t know how I’m gonna manage but I gotta get a place cuz having these feelings for him and not being able to do anything about it is killing me

Maybe reach out to a women’s shelter in the area. Tell them you’re trying to get sober. Most will be glad to help.

I live in a huge city and everywhere I have called the beds are full.

I continue to work but it’s hard going back to the place I created memories with him and have to see him every day and coexist knowing he isn’t showing his pain or hurt and continues to use
