Drug recovery help, how to stay clean?

Question by Jake: Drug recovery help, how to stay clean?
Simply put, I need advice on how to never again relapse. About me, I’m not a hardcore drug addict, just an 18 year old male, who lives in a very bad home environment, and through getting screwed over by trusting the wrong people, I now have no real friends. I’m sick of drugs and everything about them, but, this only my first day after my shortest relapse ever. I honestly don’t think I will relapse again, this relapse that lasted for only one week after trying to quit again really showed me how unhappy I am being involved with drugs, and how much I want to quit. But like I said, this is only day one, but I never again want to mess with drugs, the idea of relapsing honestly upsets me so much it makes me want to cry. Can anyone help me? What do I do when two or three weeks after being sober I start to want to get high again? What do I need to do stay sober for life?

you should get involved in sports or hang out with people who don’t do drugs. You should also get help from others who have the same problem. i’ve seen how people screw up their lives with drugs and you should be proud of yourself for wanting to quit. my friend joined a soccer team and he also volunteers at places although it seems kinda boring it will keep you away from drugs. Also you can play video games or something that will distract you.
