Clean happy and living my life

I would liketo say to all youguys and gals starting on there journey to a free clean life , well its so so worth the fight physical and mental.Me and my wife were 13 year HEROIN addicts yes 13 lost and waisted years.My wife Kim has been clean for over1 year i have been clean coming up 6 months after relapsing a few times.I would like to say the help support i got here was second to none thank you MH. The ppl that know me have seen me struggle to get clean. At times i thought i could never beat my HEROIN addiction but my friends stuck by me as did Kim. I would just like to tell you if you want somthing bad enough you can do it.We quit cold turkey that was not a very nice experance but very doable. Now i wake in the moening and i thank the lord im still here as a few of my friends did not make it. But iv never ever been as happy as i am now. Life free of drugs is so so much betteryes i struggleda lot of the time,but there was always someone there to help mewhen i felt weak. So if you are on day 1 or week two keep on fighting i never thought i would ever be happy again.How wrong i was Me and my wife are on our first holiday in 14 years. So plzkeep fighting and when youfeel weak POST there isalways someone to help. Like i said if you want it bad enogh and i wanted it bad.Then anything is possible i think meand my wife are living proof iv never everbeen so happy and living my life tothe max,,,,,,,,James,,,,,,,,
