I am a recovering addict. I have been
clean for 14 months. So far the hardest
and best thing I have ever done for
myself. But I am wondering, will the
urges ever go away. Or is this something
I will fight with for the rest of my life.
When I watch movies with drugs in them or
see, users on the street, I get this sick
feeling in my stomach, and sadness and
guilt overwhelm me. Will these feelings
ever go away? Maybe someone who is
farther along in their sobriety could help
me out with this? I would appreciate any
input.
My mom is a recovering alcohlic, I dont
want to scare you but the urge will
probably always be there. Shes been out
of rehab 2 yrs and she still in certain
places/situations wants one. Believe in
yourself that you can do it and take the
skills you learned and try your best. If
you slip up its not the end of the world,
your human. The best of luck to you I
dont personally know what your going
through but I empathise,seeing what my mom
goes through. You can do it
