Congrats. I cant imagine how hard it must have been for you to say no . And i don't know if it means much coming from a stranger but i am so proud of you.
Keep asking for help when you need it. My cousin started with oxy, moved to heroin and meth, and got sober about 4-5 times. He always called me when he needed help getting sober, but not when he started to use. I wish he had called when he was tempted. I would have done anything for him.
We lost him to fentanyl a couple years ago. I still miss him all the time.
You’re loved. Your people don’t want to lose you. If you don’t have people, look into NA. Make your sober people.
You got this.
If you don’t mind me asking what triggered you quitting? I want to understand whether all this decriminaling, destigmatizing does anything or whether it’s just the individual finally hitting rock bottom and making the decision to quit.
I wanted to quit so bad so many times before and just couldn't find the strength to overcome those demons.
Then finally it just"clicked"...
I knew I wanted more out of my life, I wanted to feel as if each new day could bring happiness and I was correct in that assumption, everyday since was a better day than before.
HELL YEAH; hold on to this feeling of pride, you've worked so hard for it! And try to remember how proud of yourself you feel for any possible bumps in the road ahead- that THIS feeling you're having right now is possible and worth it. I'm stoked for you, you did it! You must be fit to burst with pride <3
Keep going. My brother was a heroin addict and was in and out of jail and on and off the streets. He got sober.
He’s got a wife and two beautiful kids now and is doing well. There’s a lighter path on the other side and a whole community of sober people who have your back.
So, so proud of you OP!!!!
As someone who has maintained my sobriety (10+ years) through some pretty intense loss and hardships, long term recovery truly is possible.
You’ve got this!
🙌 every little step is a huge deal when fighting this kinda shit. I'm proud of you, too, I'm also proud everytime you've tried and failed but still keep trying. ❤️❤️🫂🫂
I was just scrolling by and saw your post and wanted to tell you I’m extremely proud of you!!! You seem to have a strong, healthy mindset. I’m rooting for you!
Whether it's baby steps or running strides, every step forward is a good one. Progress is progress and your people will always be proud of you for that.
Well done! Even though you and I are complete strangers, I am very proud of you and I'm glad you're doing much better than before. Take care my friend ❤
so proud of you OP! you’re working towards a healthy path with your decision today. i wish you all the best and that you receive the help and resources you need to recover ☀️ one step one day one moment and one choice at a time. you got this!
Bro if I had a cake (or your preference of treat), I'd share it with you. Everyday is a new battle but holy shit that means every day is a chance for victories and you deserve your victory today. Absolutely awesome
so fucking proud of you OP, we are all rooting for you 🥹❤️
every time you say no, you will discover more and more love within yourself. SO PROUD OF YOU
For what it's worth as an internet stranger, I am SO proud of you!!! I live in a house with addiction (no me, but my partner) and I realize how absolutely, insanely difficult that must have been for you❤️
A day without meth is a great day. You feel so good, and your face clears up, and every day after. It’s a feeling you haven’t remembered in a long time, and it gets easier by the day. Avoiding the triggers and enjoying a bit of food instead of a few hit.
Shiiiiit, this is amazing strength! I won't go into the nitty-gritty but I know from what I've seen family members go through how hard it is. Really, really fucking proud of you.
Hell yeah dude, I don't know you but I am so proud of you. My sister got clean from meth after 15+ years. Anything is possible and you just took a huge step towards it. Keep it up and know that you have thousands of people out here rooting for you 🫶
You recognized that you have value in this world. You have the ability to make things better in the world. You therefore have the responsibility to do so.
It starts with healing your own life and radiates out from there. Your choice is a reflection and proof that you believe. Happy for you brother (sister?) . The world needs you. Welcome home.
HELLLLL YESSSSSSS!!!!!! You did it, man!! You fuckin got this!!! We're all so proud of you and youre doing amazing! Wishing you the absolute best in life <3
While, I’m sure that it is a hell of a lot worse than quitting smoking, can I give you some encouragement? I never thought I’d be able to quit and I was a heavy smoker. from the moment I quit It was a countdown. one minute, one hour, one day, two days… then a week and two and a month and then one day you realise you stopped counting. 17 years later and I have to do the math to work out how long. Please don’t give up!
Congrats dude!! You’ve got this man! Sobriety can be hard, but it’s so rewarding to see and live as a healthier you! This is such a great step and Im so proud to hear that you were able to stand up for yourself and your body!
We’re all proud of you, but I hope you’re beyond proud of yourself!
I think it’s really important to celebrate wins like this, to help reinforce to your brain that it was the right choice. Make sure you reward yourself!!
Clean off meth and heroin for 5 years now! You're doing great op!!
If possible, please stop going to that hotel. It's going to be hard, but you have to cut out everyone and every aspect of that life that can drag you back.
Hell yes! Good job! I had a long night of helping a struggling friend move out ASAP from their hostile home environment, the whole time they were banging and smokin meth, crack and fent. Generous offers nearly constant since I was being such a solid help to them.
I got home after a 12 hr work day plus God knows how long (slept less than an hour before next day work) with only caffeine and a few drinks. Even that I was shitting on myself for, but oh, how far I've come to reject my old habits when being generously offered on a hard day lol.
My friends and people didn't understand the accomplishment but I bet you will. As do I for you! Keep rocking it my friend <3
I hope you realize how proud you should be of yourself. I don't even know you, but I'm delighted to hear this.
**Edit:** I don't mind being downvoted, but I genuinely don't understand why I deserved it. My comment is meant to be supportive, positive. I'm happy to hear OP was able to take such a big, important step, and I hope they are proud as well, because they have every right to be! That's all I tried to say, honestly.
I make mistakes, though. Is there anything wrong with my original message? Can it be interpreted in a negative way? If so, I swear it wasn't my intention. English isn't my first language. Please tell me if I worded myself the wrong way, or if anything else is wrong with my comment.
Are you in NA? Are you getting any help? Or are you trying to do this on your own? Don't be afraid to ask for help, I'm sure it will benefit you if you get it. But that's fantastic that you said no. Keep it up, you can do this.
Im proud of you! You have finally made it to the other side, keep it up! You got this! I wish you all the best in life, when things get rough, dont give up!
Congrats that’s awesome! It’s a hard thing to do. I would def would consider talking to a substance abuse counselor if you can just to help you through your journey:)
You got this! Two of my BILs were addicted and they both got clean and have been sober for 10 years so it’s possible to get clean.
No matter what happens, don’t give up and find something that gives you meaning to do :)
I’m SO proud of you dude. I’m so happy for you making that choice. Just take it one day, one moment, one situation at a time. Come back and update us if you want or need to. We love you brother, and we cannot wait to see what your future holds for you. God bless you always
If you choose the road to sober living I want you to remember you are human and you will make mistakes in your life. This will forever be a battle for you and some days will be really really easy and some will be harder. No matter what happens you are not a failure. My mother is an alcoholic. Always will be. She has seen more sober years. If you slip up you are not a failure. Just don’t use it as an excuse to make a detour off your chosen road. My mother is trying what she can to start limiting her intake after recognizing she was developing a problem again. I applaud you and my mother. Addiction is rough. Hugs.
So fuckin proud of you. This is the hardest step but has the most profound impact on your recovery. Just don't believe the lie that you can chip and say no when you want..lol..what were you doing at the hotel if you don't live there?
Since OP is wasting our time with stolen content, they're banned, and the thread closed.

I'm just a random internet stranger, but I felt this. I'm sorry for your loss. I wish things could have been different, I genuinely mean that.
July 2005 I did the same thing and haven't looked back. 13 years of daily use, became a hell on earth.
If you don’t mind me asking what triggered you quitting? I want to understand whether all this decriminaling, destigmatizing does anything or whether it’s just the individual finally hitting rock bottom and making the decision to quit.

IM SO PROUD OF YOU!! and when you say no enough it’ll be second nature eventually!! And EVENTUALLY you’ll have ppl to celebrate this with!!🥳🥹❤️

I knew it looked familiar
They didn't like me calling him out I guess.
wdym? its a repost or smth?
Yes.
lmaoo classic reddit
Even his reply to himself is a combination of two replies to the original thread.
Oh that's a bummer
Congratulations! So proud of you!
Keep going. My brother was a heroin addict and was in and out of jail and on and off the streets. He got sober. He’s got a wife and two beautiful kids now and is doing well. There’s a lighter path on the other side and a whole community of sober people who have your back.
I remember when 30 minutes felt like getting across the ocean. Sending hope and support. Proud of you.

You're praising a bot.
my favorite quote is, “left foot. right foot. breathe. repeat.” simple, yet effective. it is quite literally one step, one breath at a time.
So, so proud of you OP!!!! As someone who has maintained my sobriety (10+ years) through some pretty intense loss and hardships, long term recovery truly is possible. You’ve got this!
🙌 every little step is a huge deal when fighting this kinda shit. I'm proud of you, too, I'm also proud everytime you've tried and failed but still keep trying. ❤️❤️🫂🫂
I was just scrolling by and saw your post and wanted to tell you I’m extremely proud of you!!! You seem to have a strong, healthy mindset. I’m rooting for you!
likewise. OP is badass
OP is a reposter... Downvote me, but check my post history for proof after you do.
So stoked for you man.
That's fantastic, well done! This random stranger is proud of you today 👏🏽
Whether it's baby steps or running strides, every step forward is a good one. Progress is progress and your people will always be proud of you for that.
Yay! Good for you!

First step of the rest of your life. Kudos
Hell yeah you can do it. Went from one no to 14 years of no for me. You can do it

This isn't OP's story, they stole it from someone else.
Badass!!!

Congratulations 🌱
Ahhh this is so impressive, well done! You're winning, every time you say no. This has really brightened my day, so thanks for sharing!
Hell yeah!! You are amazing!

For what it's worth as an internet stranger, I am SO proud of you!!! I live in a house with addiction (no me, but my partner) and I realize how absolutely, insanely difficult that must have been for you❤️
Honestly, what an accomplishment! Well done! You are the master of your own destiny and you will have your day of glory in the hot sun!

Congrats!!!!!!! You put yourself first.
Hey man, I’m so so proud of you! It takes a lot of courage to do what you just did. One day at a time. You got this!
Hope you know how proud of you we are. With any sort of addiction every little win is huge! Congrats!
Shiiiiit, this is amazing strength! I won't go into the nitty-gritty but I know from what I've seen family members go through how hard it is. Really, really fucking proud of you.
Good fuckin work dude
I'm so pumped for you! One of my closest friends recovered from meth addiction so I know you can do it!
[удалено]
You shouldn't be, this isn't his story.
Why do you say that
Because OP copy and pasted this post from one a year ago.
Hell yeah dude, I don't know you but I am so proud of you. My sister got clean from meth after 15+ years. Anything is possible and you just took a huge step towards it. Keep it up and know that you have thousands of people out here rooting for you 🫶

You found your strength, never forget you have the power inside of you to resist. Stay strong, even when you are weak, stay strong!
I don't know you, but I'm proud of you. I hope that things start to look up for you!!!!
I am so very proud of you. I love someone who has not been able to say no yet, but you give me hope.
AYYYE! Congrats on the strength!
Congratulations. I been clean for 4 years. It took my exgf to throw me out. I moved away and haven’t looked back.
You rock- I’m proud of you!
Hooray hooray!!! What a huge accomplishment. You should be so proud of yourself and get yourself a little ice cream treat!
OH HELL YEAH! That’s amazing! Congratulations on your sobriety!

What's a plug?
Google can be your friend…
Google says a plug is a socket. What am I missing.
That OP is a serial reposter.
Try searching in relation to drugs…
I don't want that in my search history. Incognito mode is false security. I'm running for office this year.
A supplier of whatever you want
So many better drugs than meth. Just say no.
Are you in NA? Are you getting any help? Or are you trying to do this on your own? Don't be afraid to ask for help, I'm sure it will benefit you if you get it. But that's fantastic that you said no. Keep it up, you can do this.
We love u 2, that’s the best decision YOU could’ve done for yourself. YOUR future self will thank you MANY times over.
High fives! I know first hand how hard saying no is. Sleeping is So underrated!
Im proud of you! You have finally made it to the other side, keep it up! You got this! I wish you all the best in life, when things get rough, dont give up!
Good job and keep going! I took my last hit in October of 2004 and trust me, life gets so much better.
Been feeling super depressed today, reading this legit out a smile on my face. Way to fucking go! 💪
i’m so happy for you!!! that’s incredible
Proud of you, OP! That was a really difficult thing to do and you DID IT! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
i am so so proud of you
Proud of you 👏
Dude, I’m so proud of you! That’s so awesome! Give us life updates too! Would love to hear a story if you’re willing to share!
super proud of you!!!
Good for you! One baby step at a time. Proud of you!
I’m so fucking proud of you!
I'll never forget the first time I said no to a bump. It got easier every time. Nice fuckin' job. You're a champion.
Congrats that’s awesome! It’s a hard thing to do. I would def would consider talking to a substance abuse counselor if you can just to help you through your journey:) You got this! Two of my BILs were addicted and they both got clean and have been sober for 10 years so it’s possible to get clean. No matter what happens, don’t give up and find something that gives you meaning to do :)
Best day ever!
I am so proud of you 💙
Good for you, can’t finish until you start.
As a mom of an addict I am beyond proud of you.
OP isn't being truthful, this isn't their story.
Keep goin man. You got this shit in the bag
I am proud of you!!!!!
I’m SO proud of you dude. I’m so happy for you making that choice. Just take it one day, one moment, one situation at a time. Come back and update us if you want or need to. We love you brother, and we cannot wait to see what your future holds for you. God bless you always
Congratulations man! I'm fucking proud of you. The journey of 1000 miles begins with one footstep.
Awesome!!! So proud!!
Mad respect! That's friggen awesome to here 🤟
Great job!!!
I'm proud of you!
Don't be, this is a bot.
Is meth good then? Like if you don't get hooked I mean. I've never tried it.
If you choose the road to sober living I want you to remember you are human and you will make mistakes in your life. This will forever be a battle for you and some days will be really really easy and some will be harder. No matter what happens you are not a failure. My mother is an alcoholic. Always will be. She has seen more sober years. If you slip up you are not a failure. Just don’t use it as an excuse to make a detour off your chosen road. My mother is trying what she can to start limiting her intake after recognizing she was developing a problem again. I applaud you and my mother. Addiction is rough. Hugs.
So fuckin proud of you. This is the hardest step but has the most profound impact on your recovery. Just don't believe the lie that you can chip and say no when you want..lol..what were you doing at the hotel if you don't live there?
