Hey i've been clean for 25 days and living with my dad. He's been through this and has 2 yrs. clean. He works all the time now and i'm left at home alone. I haven't met a lot of people my age (i'm 20)! It's been very lonely for me I really don't want to use anymore. But feel lonely. I need help!!!!!!!
Have you thought about joing a support group? Lonely thoughts can lead to the loud sounds of addictive thoughts/cravings. Get out and make the most of your freedom...believe me...you are not alone in your struggle. All the best to you!
Congratulations! 25 days is really great. I find that when I'm alone I get depressed too. Sometimes I just get in the car and drive and get a coffee. It gives me a new perspective on the day. I have been attending NA meetings and there are plenty of young people in those rooms. It is hard to reach out but so worthwhile. You will realize that you are not alone. Keep up the good work!
