When I was 19 I was partying a lot. It was my first year on my own, no cerfew in my own town for college, and of course lots of parties, ladies, alcohol, and drugs. I drank every night and I got into Cocaine. I was addicted to cocaine for a whole year, but when I moved back home I calmed down from it and slowly and painfully sobered up. Its been two years, but lately I've been doing lines again and I'm scared that I might be headed towards the wrong path again. I've had my fun I'm ready to quit again.

I think you should probably get into some type of recovery program because once you quit, you still have to remain in recovery, it's a lifelong process. I'm telling you this because my brother is in a similar situation. He was into cocaine for about a year and he stopped using. But lately his friends have started using and last week I caught him using it. I got so pissed at him and we didn't talk for a few days, but he reassured me that he's not going to do it again, but I can't trust that guy. When you're using, you're not thinking about the people you're hurting, the lies you're creating, and the trust you're losing, not to mention the respect for yourself.

I think you should tell one of your friends or a family member and ask them to help you out also. Quitting is a very hard ordeal and if your doing it for the second time, you have higher chances of relapsing. I think you should do whatever it takes to quit and dont ever get near the drug again. I had a friend who had a problem with oxycontin, she's sober now but she still gets cravings. She said the thing she always does when she gets a craving is ask her self if she is willing to trade her daughters life for one pill of oxy, ofcourse the answer is always NO WAY so she never does take it and she's been sober 3 years. Get something like that in your head too, I think that would help a lot.
