CONGRATS, eyesofhorus... so well done !!! go out and celebrate it :) ..and post more, we need you here
Hey, thanks for the shout out.
In the begining it was really hard, and it did get easier as time went by.
The one thing that made a difference this time as opposed to the many previous failures was Medhelp. the first few months I posted often, now not as much but I have made it a point to get here everyday for the past year to at least read posts and remind myself that I'm not cured, I am and always will be an addict. Medhelp and the members here helped me understand finally that I can't be clean for a month or two and then attempt to control occasional use. An addict doesn't have that kind of control.
Thanks again to all of you, I draw strength from those that are 1 day into sobriety as much as those that have multiple years.
And Gnarly, I especially found your mantra of " you have to change the very way you think" to be helpful in steering me to why I use to begin with. That more than anything has helped me get past cravings and to deal with my life head on. Drugs don't make my problems go away, they just make me go away and that's a dead end road for sure.
Thanks so much for the support. You guys are the best.
WoooHoooo!! Congratulations on ONE YEAR!!! What a milestone!
