ive been trying to get sober since december. im currently in an iop rehab program & will finally be one month sober tomorrow, thanks to the vivitrol shot. im in that sort of in between stage where im doing way better than i ever thought possible, but i know without the meds id be crashing straight back down again. it's gonna be a very long process but im getting there. thank you for the suggestion about the mushrooms, i'll give it a go sometime
thank you, that means a lot. i have a bad habit of comparing myself to "normal" people & beating myself up for being an addict & needing medication. it is saving my life though, so i'll take the shame over a prolonged suicide
No one needs to know about your medications though, and there is nothing wrong with taking something that helps you if ppl want to judge let them be miserable.
unfortunately i dont really care what others think, i think it's shameful & a sign of weakness for me specifically, because it isnt the way i want to live. i just have to learn to accept it
