Can you get PAWS on Sub? Or is it after you get off opiates altogether?
Yeah I’ll agree that the PAWS is harder than the detox. Same reason they say anyone can get clean, but staying clean is the hard thing.
for me PAWS was like learning to ride a bike with no training wheels. I started using so young that once I got off opiates I had no idea who I was, what I wanted, what I liked. I didn’t know how to talk to people. Life felt really anxious. I went to a PAWS hospital (drug rehab) for 6 months to learn how to live and take care of myself again, and I still relapsed before I got comfortable with myself at 13 months clean.
In PAWS we learn that everything we do in life is life altering. Every decision we make. Getting clean is scary business, living life without drugs is scary business. But people get through PAWS and find themselves eventually. They just want to get clean enough.
PAWS doesn’t kill u as long as you don’t decide to die by relapsing.
