Recovery through connection

I grew up in an environment conducive to drug use. My mother abused substances and as such I had access to drugs at a young age. At 22 I had a major surgery, after the surgery I was prescribed painkillers. Unfortunately, I became dependent on the painkillers, once I couldn’t get a prescription, I turned to heroin and since then its been hard to stay sober. I only recovered through a community that helped me in the long run.
