Drug addiction Relapse | Looking for advices

[Bleecher]

Title.

 

I smoke weed daily, and I've gone through a cocaine addiction in the past 3 years, started as something I did only on weekends, and ended as every time I had money it was invested on cocaine. 

I've been in recovery from 2018's september until 2019's november, I came back home and started doing again. Left home where I was living with my parents, and went to "live" on a city, I mark live because I went there to get high not to live. 

 

After living in a elevator (), eating a bag of fries every day and nothing more, and robbing to get high, I was experiencing mental problems, like breakdowns and flashes in my eyes.

One day I had like something in my head that made me think about my parents, who almost forgot me (parents can never forget you even if you treat them bad), I apologized, cleaned by myself, stopped doing cocaine and weed (they don't like weed also so it was something mandatory also stop smoking), and came back home with a negative drug analytics.

 

Been sober for 7 months, and felt better than ever (quarantine helped me so much).

 

2 weekends ago I did cocaine, I mean, not much just like half of a half gram but it felt good at the moment, then when I got home I felt totally ashamed, I couldn't even look at my parents face (they didn't notice if someone is wondering).

 

I don't want to go back in my progress and I feel this as a relapse.

Feeling really bad now.

 

Any advices? Has someone from this forum ever experienced relapses? 

 

Thanks for the help in advance.

I didn't experience something like this even tho I smoke weed, Just stay off it, don't go near it, and even if you are near it just question yourself do you really need this?

I hope you get better and stop using it, in case you want to ask me questions or something just message me here or on discord 

Take care

One thing is highly recommend ( from personal experience ) is friends who don't involve in drugs and are goal-oriented. So basically the group I used to hangout with were big drug junkies and they had no aim whatsoever. I was super ambitious and well their life seemed so easy so I fell for it.

Fast-forward to real time. I'm getting my shit together, I study like 5 different books on 5 different topics everyday along with a new language just because I now have friends who are goal oriented and have so many skills, the fact that they have achieved so much and strive to achieve even more, motivates me to keep myself busy. 

So basically, here are the steps you need:

 

1. Get a goal and fix on to it so that you achieve it no matter what ( the goal shouldnt be snort 100g of cocaine daily or stupid shit like that )
2. Get friends who always ask about your progress, show you new things (new skills, places, news etc.)
3. Make sure your friends are goal-oriented.
4. delete/terminate all access you have to drugs(delete contacts, texts, links etc)

 

People relapse when there is nothing to distract you and you're put in a position where you have both access to the thing you wanna stop and the time to think about doing it. I'm sure you'll get through this!

Really impressed... I got it! 

I guess I should start hanging out with other people, it's hard when you live in a small town but not impossible. 

And yes, having goals is the most important thing, otherwise you will never do anything useful.

Tysm, really appreciate the support.

You shoudlnt do it anymore if you know you will feel bad when u do it. Remember that if you have been 1 year without doing a thing and u do it, the next day you only will be able to say that the last time u did x thing was yesterday and not 1 year ago.

 

Dont do drugs bro.

You know... sometimes it's easier to do it than not to do it.

Really appreciate your support, thanks for the advices mate
