My name is Emmi and I am 28 years old . I’ve struggled with heroin addiction for the past 12 years, I started at 16y.o and have recently got sober . My last date I got high on was JANUARY 19TH, 2023
I’ve worked soo hard to finally make it this far without using. I suffer from Ptsd, major depressive disorder anxiety . I was self-medicating myself to cope w/ all these different feelings / painful trauma I have been trying to block out. And using was the only thing that helped *;
Now I’m learning how to cope without using drug$ and feeling everything for the first time sober . I would be lying if I said this is one of the hardest things mentally physically an emotionally I’ve had to go through. I’m also verrrry anti-social so I literally have to deal w/ this ALONE ¡
But I finally found this discussion board so I’m hoping I can make some new friends who are just like me it would be really nice to be able to talk to you all bc we all understand each other !
Anyways if anyone would like to chat / have me as their new friend plzzs reach out to me Thankyouu
