When you're about to relapse what do you do to make to make yourself stop?

Silverlady · 70-79, F

Try remembering where you were when you stopped. Do you really want to go back there? Call someone you're accountable to and be honest tell them you are wanting to use. Out yourself in a meeting. If you hide it chances are you will relapse. And if you do, don't give up! Start over again ASAP. Good luck.

@dreamaway: through physical pain

Oh, I understand. I would say the same thing. No matter drugs, cutting or gambling an addiction is an addiction. Talk with someone you can trust. Also take an ice cube place it where you would cut. I have read that takes the urge away. @dreamaway:

If I'm about to relapse, then I usually do. I'm to impulsive to get that close to temptation.

@dreamaway: The work has to be done before you get in that mindset by figuring out your triggers and ways to avoid them. It's trial and error.. lots of errors lol

Take another vitamin d pill because im probably just depressed. I was never into drugs. Alcohol wasnt terrible but at a point I knew it was becoming a problem .

Not drugs. But yeah i like alcohol

My motorcycle. I just ride off somewhere. Makes me forget everything temporarily.
Or bury that shit deep deep down and not let it ever see the light of day.

@dreamaway: no! i'm not saying you should do that .. i'm telling you that i don't have the strength to resist relapsing .. but if you do jump just make sure you get back up there on the cliff!!

@mistywilloww: haha thanks. I was joking. I'll pull through. Thanks😊

@dreamaway: good! just stay busy and distract yourself and be productive and make sure you do things that benefit you and or make you feel good. offering service to others can be very giving for you as well.

Move away from whatever you're about to get back into... further the better.
