ask yalls self whens the last time yall spent a full day sober? like mitt romney sober, no weed no coffee or nothin? that might git yall thinkin

Completely normal. But you must be aware of this, yeah? You've only been off for a month or so. It just hasn't been long enough to actually feel close to normal again.

The thoughts you described in the first paragraph, as long as you realise that they're a completely normal reaction to giving up drugs; you're not going to be thinking/feeling like that forever and they don't reflect reality.
But recognise and accept that you will be feeling shit for a fair while and you just have to get through it.
The thoughts/feelings aren't real though.

So it's totally normal to hate being sober for a good while, you have to expect that. But it won't last forever.

hey sorry i havent replied to anyones comments yet, i kinda relapsed for a while with alcohol and heroin. which also had a knock-on effect on the things around me and i kinda forgot id even wrote this question lol

i joined NA about 5 weeks ago cos i got refered to doing group recovery shit by my drugs counsellor and people in the group suggested i go to NA. i found that everyone there had felt that same way at some point.

through the fellowship ive kinda found a place where i can go to talk about these feelings and thus ive gained a little bit of confidence in my sobriety. so much so that i havent touched heroin in nearly 2 weeks.

im still hating this sober feeling, whenever im not at the drugs centre or places that require me to be sober, i still smoke weed alot and always on my own. and ive been binge drinking when i cant sleep.

ive been getting a lot of cocaine and heroin cravings, i was even trying to score some heroin earlier today but eventually decided against it. cos i know that if i use again ill start lying to people again .

like i said i still hate the feeling of being sober but its slightly more 'managable' now for some reason. though it seems really scary to think of never being able to get loaded again and stuff cos that kind of life is the only way i really know. if any of that makes sense? anyway im just rambling now i shall stop now lol

No more hard drugs dammit! They aren't worth the trouble and money. Freud it. Just stop lol

And if it doesn't have the rush ur looking for, try bho. Hash oil, shatter, ear wax, whatever u call it, it gives a way harder rush than weed does. Lol I gaurentee u if u aren't a stoner, and u take a big old dab, ur gonna feel way cracked out.

That's why I got in heroin years ago. I was totally hating my existence and just needed anything to make me not feel or feel different. All the perscriptions and shrinks and doctors in the world are no substitute for picking urself up and wiping the blood from ur cheek, and getting the fuck on with ur day. That add age "one day at a time" means just focus on what's immediately around u. The things u can affect at hand, not ur life years down the road and how ur gonna be feeling.Most cravings only last a few minutes. Its a matter of occupying ur miand for that space of time. Get an Xbox and play that whenever u get a craving. Or go buy some marijuana. It'll keep u entertained and foggy enough to take the edge off

I think u need to spend time in nature. Get intimately close to mother earth. The sun, the stars, get some amethyst and it can help u find ur true destiny. Youll be so much better than when u were ever using!

There was a reason you started using drugs hard in the first place and you are confronting that reason now. Unfortunately the psychology that drove us to drug abuse in the first place doesn't go away when the drugs do. It is still there and you need to deal with that as well. Very few people are addicted without a root cause to their addiction it's just that the drugs make it so easy to forget what that cause was.

You are going to have to make a real choice pretty soon. Not some half-assed, wishy washy, I won't use these drugs but these others are OK, choice.
You've already taken a huge step by admitting you are an addict, but you are battling against yourself by using ANY drugs (and alcohol is a very dangerous drug; BELIEVE IT), at this point.
Look around you at those you admire, who are clean, and make them, and their lives, your goal.
Dump every "friend" you have who use any drugs, including tobacco and find new, clean friends.
Move to another part of town and NEVER return to the neighborhood where you used drugs.
If you can't do ALL of these things, then you are fighting a losing battle.
You do have a choice, so choose wisely.
Good luck.
