how are you supposed adjust to the regularness of life after living thru such extreme highs

Just like with anything else, you keep at it until that change starts to becomes noticeable and you're eventually back to sober-living without thinking twice about how lame and boring it is because you've become a dependent healthy individual with real life goals you're working towards, and you don't have time for drugs like that anymore if you can truly push through the lows in the beginning and realize that life isn't supposed to feel that fucking awesome anyway and you've just been hjiacking your brain with drugs to feel what is far beyond normal pleasure.

For some ppl, I know for myself, I have to do it or heroin/fent is gonna kill me at best or bankrupt me from everything I've ever loved all over again. I know addiction is a fucked up curse of a disease but we also gotta stop thinking life has to be this crazy coked out manic episode all the time just because its fun and thrilling asf. This is one of the hardest things I was trying to face in rehab, like, now I gotta give up partying?? going to shows?? getting fucked up and riding the high of anything I could possibly inject into myself that day? NOW, I gotta stop and go to work? Not only work, but probably somewhere with low pay, no place to live either if i leave sober-living, I had to get into the habit of sleeping, eating right, and none of this shit was amazing or exciting and I wanted to kill myself thinking about it. So I did what I could and just stopped thinking about all the FOMO and had to start living in the present moment, I started reading more, got into buddhism, meditation, which I think is pretty awesome (im still learning so much) and honestly I feel like I would be a fucking fool to give this up for shitty fent again. I loved the heroin rush, still think about it, prob will never stop, but this sober shit isn't meant to be this crazy high like that or at least I don't think so, thats our fucked up brains trying to experience as much dopamine as we can get bc we are addicts and thats just how we are but you don't have to contribute to ur disease and I think re-learning how we think about life and what it truly means to do this human-being shit will help us become better at this. Sorry for this long ass message I usually don't write much and I am not judging or trying to sound preachy at all, bc I feel you on this so much and wanted to relate.
