I Am a Heroin Addict

Relapse

Written on August 27th, 2012
I've been doing pretty well and trying so hard lately. I still drink but I cut down on it and I still smoke marijuana everyday, but I've been doing semi ok. I relapsed this weekend with heroin and cocaine though. I don't know why I can't just stick to my guns and fight the urges. I didn't even enjoy myself on it to much because all I could think about was letting myself and my family (mainly my mother because my addiction is killing her) down. All I can do is pick myself up and try again but I just wish it wasn't so hard. I know everyone in this group is going through the same thing, so if anyone wants to talk about it feel free to hit me up.

    Keep your head up and hang in there, beating an addiction is tough but not impossible. Surround yourself with support. Best wishes.

    I know I can't relate first hand what you're going through but I can honestly say it sounds like you're really trying. No one is perfect and everyone slips up. Don't beat yourself up too much about it.Just try and try again. Trying is whats most important. It's also the hardest. I believe you can do if that countds for anything.
