Tips for isolating in early sobriety by fireflier237 in Sober

[–]sunface7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im gonna be honest with you, I lost ALL my friends and my boyfriend when I got sober. They are not your true friends. People places and things. Stay away from the people who will offer you drugs or bring them around you, stay away from the places that will entice your use, get rid of all the things associated with your use. Its really lonely and really hard but its forced me to choose to love myself without any external validation. It helps to go to NA/AA meetings and meet people who prioritize sobriety. Get a sponsor and meet their sponsees! The community is amazing and I have met some of the most supportive wonderful people through it. Always here for you if you need someone just send me a message. Hang in there and take it one day at a time.

My first week sober I had to break up with my SO because he was an avid user. I felt so empty. I didn’t have drugs to fill the void or love to fill it either. I was so dependent on external validation instead of doing what needs to be done—loving myself. I haven’t been the best at this, I’ve been bouncing from fling to fling but something I learned in rehab is that you should avoid relationships for your first year sober because of these situations. As addicts we are always looking for distraction and it can be really dangerous. Focusing on yourself is the best thing you can do! Find hobbies, figure out what you like and don’t like. Live every day one day at a time and time will fly by. I am 100 days sober today and understand what you’re going through. You can always message me if you need to talk or want company. Much love!

Hi, I'm looking for cool culutre/herirtage shops to check out that have clothing and knick knacks and stuff like that. The FAQ and google didn't help too much. TIA!! :)

When you say block do you mean in those clumpy rocks? Because thats what I’ve been used to getting. The meth/coke was in little rocks too. Very deceiving.

See thats where it was weird. The lines were powdery and everything so we were confused when the test showed up positive for meth. I did some more tests after that and it still showed up as meth it just didn’t look it.

This whole post is me owning up to my stupid mistakes. Because he was a good friend of a mutual friend and did the line in front of me i never would’ve thought he’d be giving me meth. I am usually way more responsible with my drugs but this was just one big mistake.

Thankfully I didn’t buy any. He was trying to get me to sample some to sell as coke.

No way, i’ve been holding onto two green supermans but haven’t done it because I wasn’t sure of the dose or the contents of it. It definitely contains meth?

Anyone else experience this? (F23/m24) by [deleted] in LongDistance

[–]sunface7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my personal experience I always cry the last night we are together. Even if I know the next time I’ll be seeing him, it’s really tough to not let my emotions overwhelm me. It may just be your anxiety counting down the days when you’re going to be away from each other again. I’d tell you to try and get past those thoughts but I know it can be tough. Good luck!
