Dealing with unavoidable triggers?

Hi again. So glad you responded. I read this whole thread again- you got a lot of honest, great responses. This forum has always done the same for me. I’m getting the impression you do not want to be sober? What has led you here to your 3 (maybe more now?) hours without pills and to this place? It might seem like the pills are your only friend right now, but you happen to be surrounded by a ton of caring people who are wise and non-judgmental. Many of us have been right where you are, mourning the loss of a “friend” that gave us a sense of security and peace. Keep sharing.

I am more content with sober life than I was using. My situation is tough to say the least…. Needing to remember my why I don’t use is a constant thing right now. It’s only gotten slightly better but now I have to deal with the feelings a lot more. Working through them slowly as to really learn the lessons I need to learn. Giving up control and surrendering has been tough.
