Many Thanks to my MH Friends who have Supported me too.

3 years & 1 month ago, I never imagined I'd be saying I'm clean. I also would never have been able to fathom the radical changes I've undergone in perception, thought & approach. The work continues (always) & it's a gift -- a great gift. The uncertainty, the pain, the constant change, the challenges have born fruit in ways I never could have anticipated. For me it's been about surrendering certain things & ideas, finding out who I actually am, learning to build a healthier relationship with myself & learning to set boundaries.

Congratulations to everyone for every minute of every day. Kudos for navigating all that doubt, pain & restlessness. Life is Beautiful. Thanks Vic :)

Hi everyone!  I'm Karen....421 off of opiates, 494 off of booze and 152 and 62 off of psych meds!  I include them cause even though I wasn't abusing them they were a BEAR to come off of!!  Never want to do any of that ever again!!!
The key for me has been aftercare!  It teaches me how to live right and find a purpose in life!  I NEVER would have made it this long without it!!
Congrats to everyone!  Every day is day One and everyday is a miracle!!!   ♡

BIG CONGRATS to EVERYONE!

It is NOT easy, but SO worth it in the long run. Ha! That reminds me of the Eagles song.."In the Long Run". It ended up not being worth the damge that can come along with Addiction and in MANY ways!!

I know MH has SO many more that had stayed clean or are working at it. Come on in!!!
