I know that my health is better being straight but I still get the urge, I wonder if it will always be like this?

Any thoughts?

WOW - That is a long time sober - Congrats! I too come from a long line of abusing whatever/whenever. Right now I'm trying to give up pot or learn moderation. I agree that you need to take a look at your entire past. I mean the days when you HAVE to have a fix, nothing will stop you from scoring, you don't want to get out of bed without a hit, and your self-esteem is often in the toilet.

IMO the bad days, money spent, and embarassing or dangerous situations I got into out weigh getting back into drugs. For me, there will never be enough - so why bother?

Peace & Hugs,
