Going back down
Hi, I'm Becky and I'm a drug addict. This is my first post, so excuse my ignorance. I went into rehab Jan. 04. Now I'm just kind of exsisting. I have terrible anxiety which keeps me from meetings and that leads to boredom, lonliness and too much time to feel like a total burden on my family. I desperatley need to keep my attitude right and stay out of that ugly abyss of pity and depression. Does anybody know when and if this up and down swing ends? Some days I'm O.K. and am active and optomistic, but then.... I just want to stay clean and enjoy life. Someone please tell me this will happen. My family is a great help and very supportive, but this mental part scares them and I think they think I should be O.K. now that I'm off drugs.
Any advise???
