Patient discussion about dosage
Q. dose it ever get better? Dose the feeling of useing ever go away?
A. Well to answer you question bluntly, no they never go away. It just gets easier to say no. I still want to use everyday and I have been clean for 4 years. I still have using dreams. The hard days are when you try to tell yourself that all your problems would go away if you could just get high one more time. what one more time gonna hurt?.....Everything....drugs are way to escape or make you feel like someone your not. my biggest hurdle was really looking at myself and then forgiving myself for all the pain my addiction caused. Everyone has their bottom. Everytime you want to use, put yourself back at that bottom. you will come to realize that life has been patiently waiting for you. The darkness will will fade and you will find your place. Good luck to you I hope you find strength will come in time.
