I have been using CAT for the last ten years. I just want someone to please, please give me advise on how to STOP! I always thought myself to have this strong personality, I've always been labelled as a strong person. I have overcome so many other obsticles in my life. I have even overcome being raped, so why can't I be strong enough to overcome using CAT? I went to rehab a few years ago, yes in a way it did help, but I was in there with people I thought had a much bigger problem than I had, in fact I was the only CAT user there all the others were either addicted to alcohol or cocaine or perscription drugs. The thing is my biggest problem is I have always had decent jobs paying decent money and when I don't have money I'm fine not to use or want CAT, but the minute I know I have money or am getting money, it becomes like a demon inside my stomach! Then I cannot think of anything else but to go get a line. The demon won't let go of me until I have fed it! So my question to anybody out there that can help me please tell me why I can go weeks even months with being fine, but the minute I have money the craving starts. Will the medication I've seen on this site be able to help me with that?

I used CAT for more than two years, where after I lost my Job and almost lost my family. I have now been clean for more than 4 months and still going very strong, the NEED is gone the temptation is gone and the urge to phone the dealer as soon as payday comes is totally gone. I even receive calls from the dealer still and can actually tell him with ease that I dont need anything anymore. I know exactly the feeling you have, I guess a lot of other ex-users know what you are going through. The great news though is you can stop and it is possible. One of the hardest things for me was to give up all the "friends" I had that kept on using. I started introducing new people, new friends into my life and that is what actually made the difference in my life. I surrounded myself with people that knew my situation and that was willing to support and help me through it all. It is amazing what a difference it is to have that love and friendship to help you through it. I am more than willing to give you or any other person, that same support or friendship, that was given to me, to help you get through it. The people in your life really does determine whether you break the addiction or not, I believe.

Hi there, My daughter is recovering addict, 1 week 3 days. Long time ago she used cocaine, in between she's done dagga and recently, a drug called CAT. She had a break down and came out with all she's done. Now the person who got the stuff for her and used it with her, also a family member, is now making my daughter out as a liar and being crazy. What can I say or do to get the other person to speak the truth? I believe my daughter. We've checked some of the facts which we've found to be true. Why would she lie anyway if she was already in trouble as it's now known that she's an addict??? | ||
