You can find lots of support here: on addiction in general, and on your drug of choice specifically (what are your struggling with specifically?).

Check in daily, and read around to get some needed encouragement.

Take things one day at a time. You can do this.

I am 10 days post meth and xanax relapse. What has helped me so far is going to meetings daily, posting here daily, and trying to stay as busy as possible with productive projects around the house. Mostly I don’t want to lay down in bed and isolate, because that’s what I’m inclined to do.

Congrats on the hard fought 24hrs! This place and the rooms of aa kept me from using when those cravings were mighty large

Welcome to the community!
Thank you for posting.. that is honestly the hardest part, and what I mean by that is the acknowledgement and accountability…
The biggest things that helped me was surrounding myself with people that are like minded, meetings, going to outpatient treatment centers to inquire about groups and other things. It truly does help when you can vent about things, and honestly it saved me in the long run…

Other than that I stay BUSY BUSY and do not stop moving for the most part, or at least I did in early recovery..
We are here for you! Stay safe and good luck! You got this!
