135 days clean and I almost relapsed last night.

I had such a great day yesterday. I met up with some old friends we had a nice dinner and even went out to get ice cream. As soon as we went our separate ways I got completely triggered because this is the old town I went to high school at. I have my old connects there and I texted one. I immediately got a text back saying he had some oxy, once it got to that stage of the game I had no control it felt like. I picked up but something wasn’t right... they didn’t look authentic at all and I was afraid they were laced. I sat in the parking lot with these 10 oxy for about 10 mins before I called my mother in law and explained what happened. She told me to stop by. I walked in and handed her the pills and she did her best to comfort me. I don’t want anyone to see me that way especially family. I’m so ashamed but I’m still clean, 136 days now.

Waking up to day 136 today should be a great feeling. Your mother in law sounds pretty awesome.

Very impressed honestly. While I don't think it's advisable to stick your head into the Jaws of the Tiger, I am impressed by the work and willpower you did to walk away. Congrats on your 136 days.

Something didn't feel right. Maybe you are more sober than you thought. Scoring, having them in your hand and not taking them is huge.

I wouldn't test that theory again, but make this about how you didn't, rather than how you almost.
