I know that feeling of despair. I was deep into cocaine, opioids and alcohol on a daily basis and every morning I’d wake up saying I can’t live like this anymore but I’d manage to get through my work day and start all over that night. I finally got to the point that I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. Off to detox I went for 10 days followed by an intensive outpatient program and then onto AA. There’s absolutely no shame in asking for help but I had to be willing to do the hard work it takes. It’s been over 3 years now and I can’t imagine ever going back to that lifestyle. We get to choose our bottom, make this it for yourself. What actions are you willing to take? Here’s a useful link: Resources for our recovery
