Sober since July 4th after 3 years of opiates
Hello Everyone,
I was a everyday user of anytype of painkillers I could get my hands on for 3 years. I have been sober since July the 4th of 2010. I am excited to be getting close to the one year victory. It has been the hardest thing I will ever face in my life. I am writing to let people know that there is hope and you can eventually get your life back. The main thing you need to realize is that you have to have patience, recovering from something that takes control of your life is not going to happen in days or months. I am 11 months sober and still not 100 percent but I can feel it coming, possibly another year. I have positive relationships with my friends and family again. I cannot even begin to describe how good it feels to have conquered my addiction problem, I beat this on my own and have absolutely no desire to return. I am kissing girls again, friends come over to my apartment to hang out I am a consistent and strong employee again. You can do it! I can say that without exercising I do not know if I would have been able to do it. Exercise everyday, eat healthy, get in the hot tub, spend time with people you love. You can do this! get your life back and enjoy your summer!
