Family and friends can indeed help you in avoiding a relapse…but if these are the very same people inside your drug circle, you better move to another place, at least for 3 months….far from them…coz believe you me, you ain’t gonna be able to control it when right before youre very eyes they are kicking the stuff. remember, the spirit might be willing but the flesh is weak…so you really got to take the hard way if you really are determined to avoid relapse…

It will be a plus if you will be able to help out others with it. Go out of your apartment. There are a million of things in this world that you can discover. Try extreme sports, do charity works, learn another language or travel. These are some of the things that can take your mind off of returning to your old habits.

A relapse, or a re-occurrence of a past drug habit is very common. Not everyone is strong enough, both emotionally and physically, to resist the lure and temptations of things that once made them feel euphoric. Most people think that they can avoid a relapse even if they still are associated with the same group of people that introduced the drug to them, which is a misconception. Frequent exposure and peer-pressure could lead to a relapse, and another relapse, and so on and so on. Preventing a re-occurrence or a relapse needs YOU to stray away from those that are associated with the drug, even if they are one of your family members. Remember that we are Human, and the more we are tempted, the more we are likely to commit a mistake.
