Hey man, I read this yesterday and again today and was still pretty blown away with the write. Only someone who has been there can know where you are. Be strong...stronger than the drugs. Turn to friends and family. Many are only a PM away. *smiles*
Peace brother,
Laura

Yo, Bobby...Great write, man!

Addiction messes with everything don't it?
I have found that the easiest part of sobriety is getting clean. You make a desicion, and simply quit! What follows is the b!tch. You gotta regain confidence, get over the mental and/or physical withdrawls, and you must muster up the courage to face life sober, and making amends with those you hurt helps a great deal, also.

These are all nesecary steps in recovery. Until you work on you, addiction will ligure on.

Keep your chin up, bro...you're not alone.

PM me if you need some support. At the moment, I have the longest clean time in 6 years, and this is because I have been working on me....Drugs aren't the problem, man.

We are! (It took me a very long time to realize this)

Take care, and much Love,
