It’s hard to be clean

I’ve been clean for almost 4 years now.
Sometimes I still think about it.

Today I feel a craving for something. I try to focus on the negatives about it, but if still feels like I’m having a little withdrawal. I’m sure it’s all in my head.

maybe I just need to distract myself.

I’m glad I have no way of getting drugs anymore.
I’d kill for some wine, but I don’t have money and I don’t think it’s a healthy coping mechanism anyways.

Sorry, just ranting. Ignore me

Huzzah to four years, I’m at three. Craving can suck, I treat them like symptoms and distract myself somehow til they pass.

Congratulations on being clean for four years! That’s quite an accomplishment! I haven’t gotten high in many years but have only quit drinking altogether for a few years now. Not sure how long. I still get the occasional craving to drink though. I live with my parents and can’t drink here but I will be getting my own place as soon as my name gets to the top of the waiting list. I decided i’m not going back to drinking then either. It’s not worth it.
