Burnout after drug recovery?
i was addicted to and nearly lost my life a few times to drugs, but have not had any problems with drugs since it's been 2 1 2 years. i didn't seek out the drugs, but i became addicted to my prescription that started the chain of events. i was consumed with self hatred and a massive mess to clean up after finally getting clean. however, my life feels empty now. i miss the commotion, the edginess of life, the impulsive way of feeling through my days. i feel so locked up and dead inside. i also feel like i need my every thought and action validated because i no longer trust my inner voice. i'm afraid to trust myself, let go, and just live, that it will land me in a bad place. is this common for drug recovery?if this has been your experience, how did you overcome the deadness or emptiness? how did you start LIVING again, enjoying life, and not questioning everything you do? thanks for your help.

Drug recovery question..please help?
Ever since the first time i tried a cigarette a year ago last august ive been increasing my drug use at a pretty elevated rate. after my first cigarette i still smoke butts to this day by the middle of September i had graduated to smoking weed, then in November i moved to abusing amphetamines, then in December i continued onto light opiates and a large variety of benzos, then by march i was smoking weed every day, stealing money and when time summer break came around the only thing i did every single day was search for some way to get money to buy drugs or find something in the house to get me high. during summer i started stealing my mothers pain killers and dexedrine on a regular basis i also tried salvia and moved up to much harder opiates like oxymorphone, oxycontin and methadone. by the end of the summer i had realized i had a growing problem with drugs and around that time was when i consciously made the decision that i needed to stop or at least cut back on drugs. and at first i did somewhat well, i stopped smoking weed for about three weeks but in those three weeks i didnt discontinue my pills use at all, if anything it increased. and then after about three weeks i got some more weed and then it was back to using that regularly along with the opiates and amphetamines. but still up to this point ive known i had to stop drugs but the longest ive made it completely sober was 4 days, its like im addicted to just getting high it doesnt matter what im getting high on as long as i can get an escape. and recently i elevated to stealing my grandfathers pills and just this weekend on friday night i smoked weed and did ecstasy, saturday i smoked weed and got high on methadone and then today i blew adderall and mixed in some methadone and smoked weed. I know i have a problem but the thing is i feel like i can stop on my own, but im coming to realize all the evidence to the contrary. i really would like to avoid rehab or any drug program at all costs, but i will do that if its absolutely necessary. but can anyone give me any insight, inspiration or advice?thank you so incredibly much if youve made it this far any answer pertaining to this subject at all will be appreciated so much.i do have depression issues and have had them since i was a freshman in highschool, currently im in my senior year and i am on anti depressants.
