New to Site, Opiate Addict

Hey, I'm Erin. I'm 30 yrs. old and a recovering opiate addict. Lost 5 friends this year to heroin OD's. Kinda scared me straight. I go to NA usually twice a week and I'm also doing SMART Recovery. Thought it would be good for me bc I have major depression, anxiety and PTSD. I just got engaged a few weeks ago. My fiancée is a recovering coke addict. We met in reovery and go to meetings together. And before anyone starts lecturing me, I wouldn't have it any other way. I couldn't be with someone who wasn't in recovery. Cuz someone that's been straight their whole life could never understand what I've been through. He's been clean for 19 months. I just got 30 days on Wednesday. So that's basically my piece. Don't know what else to say really. Thanks to anyone who reads this or wants to reply. 😊
