I posted some threads in this forum about how I was feeling this past week. I’m six months clean from heroin & any other downer you could think of. I was feeling bad about myself since I’m currently unemployed and I’m in my mid twenties. I wanted to use so bad so I could numb how I was feeling. I didn’t want to talk to anyone at all. After having some days pass I totally got over the cravings! It’s persistency and willpower ! Although I was craving drugs I knew within myself not to give in because I’ve worked so hard to stay clean for this long. And we all know that feeling of being sober for an x amount of days, weeks, years, whatever it may be, and when you do insert that drug in yourself most of the time we feel like crap because we just broke our own moral. Being sober feels ten times better than being high 24:7. You actually feel like a human and not a puppet. No matter how hard your cravings are just know you can get over the hurdle if you keep telling yourself not to give in & how much it’ll hurt your loved ones. I feel bad bc I saw some posts about others going through my situation and I wish I would have been awake to message them to cry n calm them down but I think I’m too late. I hope n pray that you may stay strong and not give in to temptation. You’re better than that. Have a good day everyone stay positive x
