Ex heroin user

I'm 20 years old and I got hooked on heroin when I was 16. last year I entered a Christian rehab for a year. During my time in the program I truly saw the love and the power of God (considering I had known nothing of Him before this). However, I got out and came back home in April and it's been a huge struggle being back in the world after a year in a sort of safe bubble. I still read my bible and pray everyday but come night time I'm crying myself to sleep feeling like I'm being crushed by these temptations.. I never thought staying clean would be this hard and I know if I use again I WILL die- it was only a matter of time for me. I'm scared of relapsing.. Please pray for me and maybe give me some scriptures I can meditate on or just an encouraging word, it would mean so much. Thank you.

Dont be scared! God said that he didnt give you a spirit of fear.

2 Timothy 1:17
For God has not given us a spirit of fearfulness, but one of power, love, and sound judgment.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart

Proverbs 3:5Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. 6In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight.…


And Phil 4:8
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.


Get active! Everytime you feel anxious go exercise! Go to the gym. Ride a bike. Just workout your body and get those endorphins released. It will relax you and yo will sleep and think better.
Hang out with Christians and get involved doing things with Christians. Pray with them and ask them to be your accountability partners.

You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you! Phil 4:13
Lean on Christ. Cry out for God to deliver you from this stronghold. If you believe that he will he will!

God delivered me from 4 addictions in a very short amount of time!
I am nothing special but God is! God is bigger than your pain. God is bigger!
God is so good!!

Praise the Lord in song and dance.
I will be praying for you.
You can do this! Just trust that God can get you past this!! Trust!!


Jesus came to set the captives free!

Believe that you are a new creation in Christ! You are!!
And read the bible every day.
Faith come by hearing and hearing by the word of God!! Romans 10:17


Im very proud of you!! You can do this. Lean on your savior. Write to me if you need me. I am here for you!

You are so special and loved . Jesus loves you so very much! HUGS


Roimans 10:9-10

Thank you so much this really helped me tonight

We addicts will always be addicts. Not saying we keep on the self-destructive bus, but we sure need something good to replace it. We're prone to all-or-nothing, so use that. You dropped a habit without replacing it with something that you are just as driven with. You need to replace it. I don't know your personality to guess what you can get passionate about, but, at first, I helped other addicts. Then when it was time to leave that environment, (have you noticed how few have stayed clean? Thoroughly bummed me out, so couldn't keep doing it), I tried counseling at a runaway shelter, then taking in stray cats, (addictive personalities should only do that if they're very rich and love to clean, 'cuz it gets stinky lol), then crafts. Now I'm into writing. Same addictive personality doing something constructive.

Don't replace the harmful habit and all you can do is stare into that hole. Get busy so you have no hole to stare into.
