Recovery from Fentanyl
Anyone else in recovery or has gained sobriety from opioids? I'm currently in a suboxone program to kick my fentanyl addiction. I broke my foot s little over a year ago and no one would prescribe me anything g stronger than ibuprofen. I was in excruciating pain for weeks it was horrible. I've dabbled in drugs since my teen years but had never done fetanyl till then. It was so easy to acquire and cheap too. It didnt take long at all before I was dependent on it. Then I found myself having to use just so I wasn't sick. It was such a vicious cycle.
Anyone been thru something similar and have had success in recovery or making you're still struggling with it?
Hello circle.
First thing I am glad to still have you around at this point! Opiate addiction is a walk through hell to get away from the physical addiction and the mental addiction have to be dealt with separately ( as this is a older thread and you had mentioned that you joined a program you probably know this) it is possible to get clean and stay clean. I will say this every day your mind will crave it. This can be overcome keep with your meds and grow your support network. Even though your brain will scream at you remember to reach out when. You are craving and the voice will get smaller. I don’t know if it ever goes away but you can get past this!
