Every time i get to 4 month’s shortly after i relapse. This time brought my husband down with me. He caught new charges and going to prison. I came back to pv to get sober. Trying really hard. I hate having to start over.

Thank you …
What is a vitriol shot?
I’m sorry to hear about your step back, I know struggling with opioids is extremely difficult with not a lot of resources. It is also my DOC. I am always around if you need to talk. It does get better, it’s the struggle of your life but it’s to keep your life

Vivitrol is the brand name for an extended-release form of naltrexone, a medication commonly prescribed to help prevent relapses into alcoholism or drug abuse. This medication is typically administered once a month through an intramuscular injection.

Got it, thanks. I feel like an idiot now. I’ve been sober a long time but never needed shots.
