Answer 1

Last two years experience shows that you are determined not to relapse to the darker stage that prevailed earlier. Please guard against complacency, and have confidence on your self; so that it does not relapse.

Answer 2

Yes, your life will never be the same again. The drugs you were on don't do for you what they did in the beginning. But you were always searching for a way to get back that feeling you had the first time you tried it. Even before you started experimenting with them I'll bet you felt different somehow from other people. If your not already going to some type of program like Narcotics Anonymous I would strongly suggest that you do so. As far as the kind of life that you will have, you will get out of it what you put into it. But no matter what as long as your not on drugs your life will get better. It isn't always going to be fun and games, there will be rough spots, but in my own experience my worst day sober is still better than my best day drunk! My life in the last 3 years has turned from one of hopeless existence to one of limitless possibilities. Today I'm doing things that were impossible for me 3 years ago. I'm finally happy and have some peace in my life. To achieve this seemingly impossible goal it does require change. Basically a change in lifestyle, attitude, and finding a new way to look at things, (not to mention yourself). Above all don't give in to your addictions, no matter what happens in your life. And remember that you are not alone. I hope this helps, and good luck!

I live a clean and secure life, I've always did live this way...sometimes is so booring. I say to myself I have to do something crazy. But I can't put myself in danger. So instead try something interesting and yet not dangerous for your health. Go swim in some public pull, go to a live concert, eat ice cream without counting your calories, do something funny with your friends, try to help people it's a very nice feeling. There are a plenty things that you can make yourself high, and not being addicted to something. Go play bowling, or maybe try bunge jumping?? Trust me it worths to stay clean...eventhough there are times whrn you feel lonely, you get bored...you now that you are e healthy person.

Probably it's not easy, but it worths to live this way. And the most important thing , don't forget that god is with you.

Good luck.

Answer 4

You have to make a new, clean life for yourself. If things went back to being "the same" you'd be an addict again. Use your sobriety to start over. Best of luck to you! I hope you find your way.

Answer 5

overcoming an addiction is very hard no matter what the addiction...i have recently overcame one i was going through...the best thing to do for me through all of the hard times and wanting to relapse was realizing that i was having a second chance to get on my feet and do something positive.. everytime i wanted to go back what was before i thought of how my life was going to be better... it takes time to repair a life of pain, hurt, and abuse on yourself...hang in there...

you did not mention whether you were addicted to drugs or other habits. if you want to lead a life peacefully, it is in your hands only. take a firm decision that you don't want to be addicted to any thing. if you are in a city or big town consult a good qualified behavior therapist, he will solve your problem by using behavior modification techniques.

Answer 7
