You don't have to stay here.

If you've accepted that active addiction is your future, pause for a second. It doesn't have to be.
Think back. What was life like before you started using? What does it look like now? Compare those two versions of yourself, the pieces that fit, the pieces that don't.

Addiction tells you a story about who you are and what's possible. But that story isn't fixed. There are pieces of your life that can come back together. There are gaps you can fill.

The first step isn't quitting everything at once. It's just pausing long enough to ask: What could be different?
