Yes. People who get treatment and stick with it can stop using drugs. They can change their lives so they don't go back to taking drugs. But they have to try hard and follow the treatment program for a long time. Recovery from addiction means you have to stop using drugs AND learn new ways of thinking, feeling, and dealing with problems. It’s best not to use in the first place. If you do get addicted, it’ll be a long and difficult road.
After you've stopped using the drug, you still have a lot to do:
You have to relearn how to live without using drugs.
You have to work on the problems your drug use caused with your family, your job, your friends, and your money.
You have to stay away from people you used drugs with and places where you used.
You have to learn what makes you want to take drugs again (your triggers), so you can avoid or work on those things.
You may also need treatment for problems that led to your drug use, such as depression, anxiety,
or other mental health problems.
