5 months clean from coke

5 months ago i hated my family, i hated myself, i hated my life and it was torture waking up in the morning. i was a functioning cokehead that worked, but i hid a terrible secret, well at least i thought i did cause deep down i knew everyone knew i was using a lot. 30-40 lines a day is not healthy and it took it's toll.

today i am 5 months clean and i love my family, i love myself and i love my life again. im about to start back to work fulltime monday and am lucky cause we have a family business and i love my job. im about to start playing golf again, my passion, it was my life for a while as i attended college and was gonna turn pro, but i have no regrets about that aspect now, i love my job. i have met an amazing women and this is the only time in my life i know she is the one :). i feel like a COMPLETELY different man and i want to let anyone out there know that recovery is possible. i truly believed it was impossible to get clean and be happy, but man, i feel ******* good. life without drugs is a life.
ty to all my friends here for their support, you are amazing and i couldn't have done this without you. this forum has kept me clean.

That is so wonderful to hear. i am very happy for you. if you don't mind i have a couple of questions about cocaine..i did it a very long time ago, but can someones personality change drastically in just a matter of a couple months of using..such as bizarre behavior etc..? i appreciate any advice on that. i am suspecting someone i love may be in this predicament.this person has been known to always be against this drug..Thankyou and again CONGRATS!!
