Hope all is well. I had the same problem as you speak of. After everyone left. Parents, girlfriend, daughter. I could always count on drugs to make me feel complete, safe, and worry free. My drug was my best friend that I did not want anyone to talk bad about or tell me what I should do about getting rid of. Here goes my experience. First off I was 20 years using. My kid and her mom came to me and gave me the choice stop using by way of going to treatment (already in IOP @ the time) or I had to stay out of there lives because my drug use was tricking bad into there lives in many ways. At the time I was so defensive for my drug that I could not see it. But I chose to do treatment. In treatment my mind cleared and I started praying and got in touch with my higher power. Higher power is the key my friend. When I pray and and ask for strength and guidance in my recovery. It lands me in na meetings and that is a good place to make some new friends. Sorry had to cut it a little short. Love ya.

The good things in life don’t come easily. You have to work for them. Especially this. Imagining the posibility of me having a “normal” future is what keeps me going. I totally understand long term addiction. I personally got rid of any and all temptations (people) that had a chance of making me move backwards. Realize why you started this and try your best to allow that to be your motovation.
