Moments before relapse

todat after hitting the 6 days margin i decided i could no more resist Heroin and decided to get few grams .. yet i sincerely asked God not to open that way for me .. i got ready and went out just to make a call and find the dealer’s brother is dead and he informed me he wont make it .. as much as i was frustrated about that i was happy though am not resetting all over .. then my final decision now is starting to take Naltrexone .. that is an opiates antagonist which you cannot use while having it in your system .. whenever i feel my thinking swaying to using again im going to take it .. i heared its good for alcohol though but its 100% preventing heroin from doing any action .. im happy now :slight_smile:

Have you heard of suboxone? I have been taking naltrexone daily for 3 weeks for alcohol and it really does help the cravings and such. I hear suboxone is a really good medication for opiates I have a lot of friends in treatment who swear by the stuff. I would look into it or ask your Dr. Just my thoughts. :slight_smile:

suboxone is a synthetic optiate substitute .. it acts like heroin and u can easily get addicted to it .. they only use it cuz it has less withdrawal symptoms - not that less though - and its controllable .. but loads of people do abuse it .. only straight ways work .. if your gonna be sober .. be sober :slight_smile:

Oh I didn’t know. I hear about it a lot in my outpatient program I didn’t know it was addictive :frowning: thanks for the feedback lol but I do take naltrexone daily and I can tell you it has helped me out. Keep up the good work my dude. Best wishes. Happy holidays.

I get the vivitrol shot once a month which is another form of naltrexone. I was very skeptical of its ability to reduce cravings but I have been surprised by its effectiveness thus far. I am very grateful to have it as a tool to aid me in my recovery. It is a huge relief to know that even in a moment of weakness my opiate channels are blocked.
