This is my first day of attempting to clean myself up. I know that I had to sever ties with my drug friends, and I have done that. I only had 2 anyway, but one was my boyfriend and I am finding it extremely difficult to seperate myself from him. I called him and told him why I had to sever all ties with him, and he blamed me for everything. I do take responsibility for the state I've gotton myself into, but Once I met him he brought me to a whole nother level of addiction to where I don't have food, behind on my bills, you name it. I am just having a tough time. I don't really have the cravings to do the coke or crack, but more for something to relax me and let me drift off. I know I can't do that either because it would be like trading one habit for another. I'm just hoping I can remain strong enough to keep it up.

you are on the right track keep up the good work and get your self to some NA meetings you can do a meeting search at www.na.org dont worry about your boy friend he is in the denial state where he blames every one but him self ill keep you in my prayers. our primary message in NA is that any addict can stop using lose the desire and find a new way to live. you dont have to use even if you want to no matter what

You are so brave. Taking the step to admit you have a problem and being so open about it. I want to say good luck but that seems so tired. Your honesty is taking the step to start a whole new life, keep walking.....

You seem so wise & you are right not to take any medication to relax.
Go for a walk, join a gym, anything that will jumpstart some energy then relaxing will come naturally. Dont give your mind room to think too much, you are young, you have so much life ahead of you & your children deserve the best chance that life can give them & how your children see you will mould their future. Well done for taking such a big step, your life will be so much better, im rooting for you. Louise

Thank You, your post is just what i needed today.
Often times I forget how hard it was/is to stop using, and distance myself from people that are using, even those I love. I have been clean for a while, and will be celebrating a big anniversary in 2 weeks. But my disease has taken a hold of me, and I haven't used drugs. Honey this is about the desire. We all blame, and often times it is not because we are in denial, it is because we really think others are at fault because of our situation. I can promise if you do notpick it up, you will not get high. simple truths that addicts like myself do not comphrend because we/I have to complicate everything. You are on the right track. And just know I will believe until you believe. Connecticut.

Good luck! I am a personal trainer..giving nutritional advice and fitness guidance for the past 7 years to clients. Unfortunately, many of my clients are actors that are there because their studios forced them...somehow, I fell prey to their celebrity, and started partying with them. Now, 4 years later, I find myself 5 weeks out of detox for a serious addiction to cocaine. What started out as a one time thing, then a once a month thing, then a once a week thing..became an EVERY MIN OF EVER DAY thing. Two weeks ago, I had slept 15 hrs in 1 one week...I even ran a marathon wired. I put myself in promises for a week and now am continuing as an outpatient but I don't think it's gonna work. Intellectually, I know what to do...I have numerous degrees ranging from nutrition to sports medicine...but I can't stop thinking about getting high. I almost feel like ending it all...bc I am a contradiction in my own thoughts let alone in what I preach to others.
