Recovery

There is no "right" way to live once you stop using and begin recovery. You are most likely EXACTLY right when you say that you are not ready for those steps in your life. You need to determine who you are as a drug free person. You will be completing developmental tasks that would normally have been completed during the years you were using, the good news is, they will go MUCH faster now especially if you work a program such as the 12 steps or seek out other ways to develop your sense of self outside of the use of heroin. It may be helpful to seek guidance from a counselor who will guide you in this process.
