Congrats Brother!! I Too have to admit how at awe im at with my new life now. Its was a roller coaster ride in the beginning and i slipped up once or twice as many of us do. But the past recent months I have been noticing how much my life is starting to improve, how different i truly am now compared to when i was using. Yah theres still a lot of fucked up days and sometimes i dont always feel the greatest. However even on those days the cravings are down so much that i can control them, im not obsessing about dope or using again. It's honestly like the world has been lifted off my shoulders. And when i have my good days they are FUCKING INCREDIBLE!! I dont even have a single thought about drugs on those days and the happiness i feel is way more of an organic experience compared to using drugs to feel good. I really straight up wouldn't trade one of those days for a life time of dope or using. I know i still have a far journey ahead and I know how much of a messed up junkie i was but believe it or not the futures looking pretty good. Also like Shendelzare said i hope some of you out there that are just starting recovery or even thinking about it read this. THERE IS HOPE AND LIFE DOES GET BETTER! A LOT BETTER!!! ANYONE CAN GET CLEAN IF THEY TRULY DESIRE TO!!

" How does a heroin addict recover from alcoholism ? Well for one yes the two are completely different but what you need to do is view them both as drugs not specific substances. Yes some addicts only used one drug or it was ultimately heroin, cocaine or whatever that took their lifes over. However no matter what drug your addicted to your still just an addict meaning any substance you pick up in replacement of another will have you ultimately depend on it. Addiction is a decease, its not the drugs that created it, its our head and an addict will always be an addict... You can use tools to live a manageable life, as well as helping yourself recover from drug dependency. But you still will always have to be aware that no matter what if you pick up any substance theres a high chance it will manifest in to drug abuse again.
