Strategies for Staying Clean: Tips from Recovering Addicts

12 step meetings

i get methadone from someone and it helps with the cravings and everything. has really saved me fr you just gotta make sure you know how to taper off if you aren’t going through a clinic

If you’re able to go to a good rehab with a detox clinic, that would be my first suggestion. Or if you can get suboxone, that has been the best strategy both for my withdrawals and recovery management. Also, a good therapist who specializes in addiction, or any underlying mental health issues you may have if you have any. I will tell you cold turkey is the worst way to go, but if you must detox outside of a detox center make sure you have someone to hold you accountable as you detox, preferably someone who can physically be with you through the withdrawal. And finding hobbies to distract you and replace the rituals of using is helpful as well once you are over the withdrawals. Hope this helps at least a little!
