As a young man, Ian's desire to have control started with his teammates on the baseball field. He found out the hard way when drugs took over his decision making: his problem was within. Striking out with his own life was enough for him to find sobriety.

I was basically a relapse king until January 11, 2015 when I finally got sober for good. When I’ got locked up for 10 months on January 11, 2015 I decided I was done with alcohol and drugs. While incarcerated I kept to myself and basically just thought about recovery. Read as many books as I could about recovery. I alsoGot my body back into shape. I basically use this time in jail as a launching board to start my life again. It’s been Almost 4 1/2 years since I was released. I’ve been going to regular AA meetings ever since and Changed everything in my life. Life is pretty good today. I can’t wait to be able to go to meetings again.

Stories like these are both inspirational and yet can be a cautionary tale. At times addiction grips you so strong that it almost turns into instinct no matter what it is. It can be a phase but it can last a long time that it becomes a habit. To those who overcame it congrats. The best solution for me is do not try it ever.

@zoeclan2044 2 жыл бұрын

True addiction is not a phase. It is rewiring of the brain that never goes away. You either are in recovery or an active addict.

@relight6931 23 күн бұрын

If you got some short term substitutes to make wd easier.. Use them.. The real work starts once those pass.. Then it's hour by hour if you must.. It takes time to rewire your brain and be strong enough to tell yourself no, once you feel the urge.. What helped me was menaging to always think about sickness afterwards.. After decades, even if you make a 5 year brake and relapse for just one day, you will feel physically bad for three days afterwards, never mind the mental anguish of failing, guilt, etc.. just have someone non judge mental who you can say that you relapsed right away.. I had at least two long term active addictions because I would hide because of shame.. But until I realized, if I allow my self "just this one more time", but aware I will be hurting for 3 days after.. Saying no to impulse started being easier.. Every next time you resist it, you get a little bit more in control.. Good luck man, never to late to make a positive change.

@nickkoryukin4949 4 жыл бұрын

17 was my year of the most drug usage. I tried weed and got high for my first time and found it fun so I did it again and again then I tried taking a break for a month but I have no will power so that didn't happen and eventually my brother started telling on me and my friends started telling my brother. With alcohol I loved getting drunk, I was doing it by myself even. I shoplifted liquor and wine multiple times and was drinking. My dad found out about me stealing and drinking and was often having a talk with me. I eventually laid off the alcohol when I was 18 and now-a-days whenever I see alcohol I don't get very tempted to wanna drink it. But, I still have a problem with weed, not as bad as when I was 17 but I'm still smoking every week or almost every week. There were really only two times where I went sober for over 3 weeks, the rest of the time it was only a few days to 2 weeks

@boidinktwistie4389 4 жыл бұрын

if you're just smoking weed during the week, I wouldn't say that's out of control by any means. unless of course you're in a position where it's absolutely controlling your life, i wouldn't assume you're in a bad spot. keep your chin up!

You obviously have no idea what it is to struggle with inner demons. You don't choose to be addicted to drugs. You try to self medicate with something that makes you able to function everyday and feel better then you fall into a dark pit known as addiction. We do it to ourselves, true, but does that mean we don't deserve help? Does that make us bad characters?
