Cold turkey- help me when I'm tempted

I'm about to go cold turkey from cocaine.
It's time to! Definitely
My weak points are when I'm tempted to buy some (usually evenings)

Can I message on here when I'm tempted for a pep talk on why I shouldn't & reassurance that it's ok?
I think it would really help me

Do you reckon we can do this?

I had bad news today. I think I am miscarrying, to be confirmed by an ultrasound in the next couple of days. Want nothing more than to drown my sorrows and I almost gave into it, but I didn't. The next few days are going to be bloody hard.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 01/02/2017 22:23

Spun I'm so sorry Flowers. Do you have any real life support? It sounds as though you're having an awful time. We're always here if you need us x

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 02/02/2017 08:51

Just get through today, flat. If I've learnt anything, it's not to start reflecting over your life and assessing things on a come down. Your perspective's all skewed. Concentrate on making yourself feel better and chin up Smile

flatwhite45 · 02/02/2017 08:54

Thanks lost you really are a very wise lady

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 02/02/2017 09:03

Just think about your daughter, she should be enough to make you stop

CleaningLikeAMotherFucker · 02/02/2017 10:45

Seriously?

flatwhite45 · 02/02/2017 10:54
Shock
ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 02/02/2017 10:55

I think hope Laura made a misjudged comment there without reading the thread, rather than being malicious. Sad

You're doing well Cleaning , I know you've been through a horrible trauma yourself so it's not easy.

SpunBodgeSquarepants · 02/02/2017 11:00

I get the feeling Laura has never faced an addiction before.
