I've been doing so well, but I'm having a (drug) triggering situation right now that I can't get out of what do I do?

I never knew you were a recovering addict. I also am struggling desperately now NOT to get high so I don't know that I will be much help. We have to remember how our life sucked when we were doing drugs and how we fought like Hell to get off. Just 1..just 1 will start that path all over again.. do we (I include myself) really want to go down that path again. I would feel so much better if I could just get high just tonight..but then tomorrow I will need to high again and then again and then again.. you know how it goes. I don't know much about you but I know IF you are recovering you have come thru an amazing process and you (or I) don't need to go back.. I am pulling for you and remember.. we can't change our circumstances but you are not alone. Holidays are bad triggers for me but I keep counting down the hours till the situation/triggers are over. If you need to talk, my email is in my profile. Stay strong. YOU CAN DO THIS. I HAVE FAITH IN YOU. (this may post twice..it didn't show the first time)

Prayer works wonders. Talking to another recovering person is also good.

NightTripper..I hope that you made it through..One big plus is you do recognize the triggers..Just dont forget how much better you feel since leaving the drug. :)

A guy told me he got off drugs by pigging out on ice cream. It apparently worked for him, I don't know if it will work for anybody else.
