Avoid all enablers.
That's a huge one that.
When I went down from rehab, I turned my back on so many people from my past. Mates that I did drugs with, ex girlfirends who I loved but who also did drugs, everyone... Even the mates that I just smoked with once or twice, and who then never smoked again, I didnt see for a couple of years.
I just surrounded myself with clean people, completely avoiding anyone who did drugs or smoked pot. Even if I just met a bird I fancied, if I found out she did anything I'd just stop seeing her.I didnt go to pubs, bars, parties or nightclubs, and just basically lived a 100% pure life if you like.
It helped me adjust to being clean outside of rehab centre which meant that, after a couple of years, I could see a bunch of people and go out partying without drinking or feeling bad, because I developped a habit of just staying clean and living clean. If anyone is going to bring you down at that stage, it's gonna be yourself., not enablers. Unless you feel vulnerbale and in that case, you just surround yourself by the right people again.
Like now, I'm about to go out at a house party for new years where everyone's gonna be drinking and getting drunk and I know there's not a chance I'll have a drink myself. I've built 7 years momentum and trust myself. But in the begining, you need to be surrounded by people who know you're problem and will not let you fuck up. Anyobdy who's gonna remind you of your days as a junkie/alkie, you need to let go.
All easy to say I know, but I've been there. It's a huge sacrifice, one of the hardest, but it's essential.
