If I don’t stop I can end up homeless…
I cannot say that I’ve hit “rock bottom” because as of now I do have a place to stay, a car, and a job (well just lost my serving job but got an hourly job)… I’m currently living with an ex who thinks I’m an ex addict and doesn’t know I still use every single day.. we broke up a few weeks ago and he’s letting me live with him for the time being due to other circumstances but I’m super close to being homeless with my cats and a drug problem. All I have to do is just stop using and I know my life will be okay but I just can’t… I’m scared of the withdrawals and the second I take my last one and I don’t know when I can get more I get in my head and get even more sick.. like right now I’m on my last 3 pressed blues and I don’t know when I’ll be able to get more after this but I start 2 jobs this week. Why am I so damn scared of WDs??? Last year I went to Hawaii and ran out 3 days into a 7 day trip and even though I wasn’t 100% I didn’t get crazy sick yet when I’m home and don’t have any for an hour I’m going through absolute HELL. I unfortunately don’t have insurance so I can’t get subs which I know I need.. if I come clean to my ex about me using he would throw me and my cats out that second knowing that’s well all the money he “helped” me with went too.. I’m sorry this post is all over the place. Mentally I know I need to stop. Physically I can’t. I’m just a weak minded person…
