Hey everyone. Here's my story.. I'm currently 23 years old and have been clean on and off for the past year. My drug of choice was opiates (pain killers to be exact). Anyways, for the past year i've been clean from opiates but have over done it with alcohol. Alcohol was never my drug of choice but anytime i drink i start to feel "decent" and it's like all common sense fades away. I drink wayy to much and am a completely different person. I get angry/mean/emotional/depressed. The main reason i came here is because i'm dealing with the loose ends of my past. My friend recently discovered that her codiene is missing and is starting to question me. I want so badly to be honest with her bc i hate to lie but i'm scared. I have so much guilt from my past actions that it takes the biggest toll on me. I guess i know what the right thing to do is but i'm looking for some support/ similar experiences. I wish it was okay to lie but i can't ... Thanks

It's really easy to give up one addiction and get hooked on another. I think it's smart of you to think about this now

Hi Orion, welcome to the family.

Welcome. The only advice I have is be true to yourself. The time will come where you have a new past, one that you have the power to write starting today. What past do you want to look upon? Do you want a new past? Only you can make that decision and do what you know needs to be done.
