Passion for recovery
Hello,
Am new to online forums. A little confused and not sure what to expect. Am hoping I can find a new Passion for Recovery. I was lucky and blessed to have been given 4 wonderful years of pure recovery and sobriety. I became complacent and lost the passion for recovery and chose to go back out on opiates last year. Its been a stuggle to find my way back into sobriety. I want it so bad and want to be free of the obsessions. I am trying to branch out and find others who have shared similar struggles and find strength in their stories.
My name is Scott. I am 31. Am married to a beauiful woman in recovery who has 7 years free from drugs and alcohol. I, like many, started using pain meds after an injury and they quickly took over my life. They were all I lived for. In sept of 2007 I found and was granted a gift of desperation and finally became willing to do what I hadn't been willing to do. Got sober through aa and other fellowships that practice the 12 steps. I found peace and serenity that I never imagined. I loved every minute of those 4 years. After having a handful of kidney stones last year I had my DOC in my body and Immediately they took over like I never stopped.
Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. Not sure if I did it in the right area or forum. I will spend time tomorrow on the site and figure out where to go and how to do this. I am so open to suggestions and support. I am struggling and feel so alone.
