I had a fight tonight with my husband and anytime that happens. It stirs up emotions in me that make me want to use. I am 25 days cannabis free. I would like to keep it that way, but what usually breaks me is strong emotions. So far, I’m giving myself a little bit of time before I make any decisions but it’s hard to sit in an uncomfortable place with my emotions.

Stay the course. You do not have to use. Life happens

Fights are definitely a trigger for me too. Find something calming… sit quietly, get outside and walk, count to 100 to 0. (I’ve been doing either 10 pushups or 20 squats lol!!). It def helps. You got this

Keep fighting! You got this. Stay strong and know with God ALL THINGS are possible. As we recover it’s a battle every day especially continuing to be around those that trigger that emotion for us to go use.

To me, the biggest victory in this post is that you're just letting yourself be uncomfortable instead of rushing to use. You know exactly how those fights used to end, but right now you are doing something completely different. We’re right here with you
thank you very much for the support. I went to my first meeting since quitting tonight. I do hope this one sticks.
