I doing crack everyday and cant control the cravings i lossing the battle
Are you in any program? Once when I was feeling particularly triggered I did back to back online meetings for about three hours until the cravings passed.
i am in the same boat. not as frequent but i keep goin bac. and the scariest part is my family is more worried ab me than i am myself
Maybe as suggested get on a recovery program plenty out there if you search wish you well
I tried and succeeded on spending Christmas sober so im on 1 day 8 hr so far but to say it was a walk in the park would be lying especially with the withdrawal symptoms and wild emotional roller coaster rides then having to say no to a friend who wanted to go get our D.O.C but I’m going to keep the faith and try to keep on the right path
Congratulations. Sometimes we need to cut the time down to one hour at a time, one minute at a time. Staying clean, sober, choosing the right thing.
It will get easier, lots of great stories here testify this.
Playing the tape through helped me a lot. With all the fucking details of the morning after.
Good for you. It sounds like you know what you want and you are going after it one day at a time.
Keep in touch with us here; check in; read some posts from others. There’s a lot of wisdom.
I’ve taken my free time sober (from when I used to use) and used it to learn. I like this thread: Resources for our recovery
These threads are helpful for me too:
Don’t give up. You are not alone. Reach out to your community.
Quitting this doc is going to be life changing. If you can put in the will to always stay sober, it will be better.
Crack is the road to hell
It can also kill you
I’ve dabbled to be honest but never liked it.
If you were out of crack you think you saw some on the ground would you instinctively stop and look. My doc is the THC pen and if I see a cart I still stop and look. I’m over 100 days with 0 interest but still stop and to see the carts.
If I didn’t quit weed
And I knew there might be some on the ground I would literally be on my hands and knees looking for it. Which reminds me that half the thrill is the chase… so I thought. I’d look like a fool on the ground and can literally say it brought me to my hands and knees
Crack is illegal
Looking for it takes desperation and it could lead you in jail
Quitting is life changing but you have to have the will to quit.
It’ll be like a curten opening and the norm will change
It’s hard to explain
You have to do good to get good
Willpower to change your life
Perhaps an aa meeting or na meeting
Could be the best most important choice in this fork on the road in your life
