Welcome to the forum!! Congratulations on ur 60 days of freedom! I started using hard drugs at 15 and im 38 also. I too had the same issue. It was tough getting clean but i could do it… it was staying clean for long periods of time that was the hardest. My mind would start lieing to me, telling me that I could do a little bit and be fine or that I didnt have a problem any longer, etc. And Id begin to forget how bad things really were. The trick for me was to write down in great detail, how bad my life was when i was sooo desperate to quit. And id remind myself daily so that my mind couldnt try and trick me. Stay connected to ur supports, attend a mtg if ur into those, and feel free to look around the forum and join in 
we are all here for u!
