I am 2 weeks clean from cocaine and today for the first time, the thoughts hit me a little bit less. I think it takes a while for them to go away, but I am told that they will decrease the longer one abstains from the drug.
It is best to avoid people and places that could get you into a not so good situation.
When things appear to trigger you, remember that you can make it through it and you will be stronger for the next time.
I started using constantly in my apartment so sometimes I would be scared to go home because I was frightened of being triggered. It was kinda bad the first few times, but I got stronger in the ability to not act on those desires.
Just because you have thoughts doesn't mean that you gotta use.
I'm so glad that you are here reaching out!
