Unhappy Back again...

I think it's been about two weeks since I was on here last. In that two weeks I've spent about 1500 dollars that I didn't have on pills. This sucks. I feel like a failure

It looks like you made it through most of a week when you were here the last time. Can you figure out what happened so you do things differently this time?

I think it's helpful to remember that addiction is a disease. It's not a character defect and you're not a failure.

welcome back

Have you thought about getting more support, trying things in recovery you haven't tried before like a recovery programe or counselling, even seeing a Dr for their advice, even inpatient or outpatient rehab?

I think adding more and more things to our recovery routine, more and more support - actively doing more to stay clean, even when we're not craving, really helps

If it gets much worse you'll have to start going to NA.

All the best.
