Time to get my life back and that time is NOW!

I just got out of rehab, I was a heroin/methadone/meth addict.... Rehab was GREAT, as long as you go to a good one.... I learned so much during therapy, about why I used drugs, how to avoid the pitfuls of addiction etc. etc. AA sets you up with a great foundation and future support group.... Its true that you need to watch out for romances as well, I got SUPER horny in rehab and almost got kicked out for hooking up with girls

since I've gotten out of rehab I've been taking a lot of kratom and drinking beer, and now I realize from everything I learned that I am a drug addict plain and simple and that if its not meth/heroin than it can be food/beer/kratom/porn anything, , So always be guarded against that shit.

First, congrats on the rehab. I am sure you noticed that a lot of people leave before treatment is over. I guess it is like they say in the AA preamble. Some people are constitutionally incapable of getting sober because they are deluded about the status of their addiction.

The bolded text is a great mentality to have in early recovery. The drive to use is still incredibly strong in early recovery and it is best just to stay away from any mind altering substances due to the high instance of developing a habit again. Good job on the self awareness my friend.
