Hey guys... been an opiate addict for about a decade now and newly clean. My habit progressed pretty typically, started with perks then 30s, then a lot of 30s and the past 2 years been slamming dope, as much as I could. I've used subs off and on but haven't been opiate free in 10 years. I went into detox for 5 days then residential for 14 days and started feeling better day by day. I got out 4/16 , used a few bags that night stupidly and woke up after being narcaned, learned my lesson and haven't done anything since. It's been 4 days and feel like shit! I feel like I hit a reset button with that one use. I have zero energy, I force myself to get up, shower, go for a walk, drink water, take vitamin and have been to NA every night. I've read a lot of threads on PAWS and am just wondering if anyone can give me any other tips on feeling better. Supplements? Anything? Thanks..
