Hello all,
I am a recovering meth addict. I stopped using everyday more than a year and a half ago but I've relapsed 3 times since then. I had been completely sober for about 6 months but I've started drinking and smoking weed again. I really want to be completely sober but I like the feeling of being messed up. I do have a prescription for medical marijuana, but too much thc makes me feel anxious, It used to calm my nerves but the whole pandemic has made me very sensitive to it. I want to be sober, but I feel like wanting it isn't enough. Giving up meth was one of the hardest things I've ever done, so giving up the others should be easy. What do I do? My meth addiction has left me with severe memory issues, but my cognitive ability is still there. Will the memory issues get worse? Or stay the same if I eat healthy and exercise: What's the point of being sober if my mental decline just gets worse?
