Hey thanks! That's exactly what I did last night and it worked. I feel soooo much better today and I am so happy I didn't use.
I called an old AA buddy of mine. He told me to make myself accountable by telling someone I'm there with. He put me on 3-way with my mom and I started crying my eyes out. I told her that all I wanted to do was use. She reminded me that using heroin = death. All my goals and dreams would be gone. She was right. If I ever did heroin again it would be a downward spiral.
Today, the cravings are pretty much gone. They will return again sometime, but I just have to call.
Thanks for listening to me. Sometimes you are only one person away from killing yourself.
