Relapsed on Addiction, Need Help Coping with Trauma

Try something non-controlled, like trazodone to help with the sleep. Avoid things like Ambien that can be abused. Also, I can't stress this enough, get into therapy to process your trauma as quickly as possible. Take the actual processing as slow as you need but start to address it. The longer trauma is covered up and buried the stronger it becomes and it feeds our addictions Over the last couple of years I have learned this the hardest way. So my advice would be don't be like me, don't put it off, stop numbing, and face your demons before they eat you alive

My god, this... I'm seven months clean from a relapse myself. Can I ask what your DOC is? Just so i have a clear idea on what I'm giving advice on, I'm a IV opiate user myself if your kind of skeptical about letting anyone in
