I just got over a craving for speed or a cigarette. Both are bad. The last time I used illicit drugs was the summer of 1980. I don’t know what is triggering me today or why I would get a craving for a cigarette or speed after all these years. I guess I should go to an NA meeting tomorrow.
Talking about it and admitting it helps.
Edit - NA is Narcotics Anonymous recovery organization
I am so sorry you are feeling this…please get help.
I’ve been struggling with drinking urges myself. If found that eating a lot of sugary stuff helps alleviate the alcohol cravings, but that has its own problems.
My friend admitted to me she used several days ago. She had me swear I wouldn’t tell anyone.
Speed is no joke! That stuff is extremely potent and addictive.
I just want to say you’re doing great staying clean off that stuff for 40 years.
But if you still get the odd craving you might want to call a substance abuse hotline or confide in a friend about it.
Please stay strong and sober.
I’ve witnessed meth destroy lives.
Thanks. I’m not sure if what was called speed in the late 70’s was meth or not. I just knew it by the name speed.
