In this brief personal account, Dallas Bragg answers the question of what early recovery from crystal meth feels like. He explains that recovery forces him to alter everyday routines that were once linked to drug use: he must find a new route home from work because the familiar street triggers memories of meth use, and he has to stop visiting favorite hangout spots with friends for the same reason. He also describes the emotional turbulence of early recovery, likening it to riding an emotional spiral. The narrative highlights the practical and psychological challenges of avoiding environmental cues and coping with intense emotions during the initial phase of sobriety.
