Answer by Gia*ForeverandEverEtc
My dad was an addict longer than he hasn’t been.
He did everything… heroin, meth, coke, you name it. He quit when he and my mom had their first child. And he has been clean for 23 years.
If you just stop doing it though, you’ll get really sick, because that’s now your normal. So when people do quit, they have to slowly take less, and less.
But it’s possible with support, and if you really want to 🙂
