100 days tommorrow

Well never thought i could get this far Rehab was my last chance and i grabed it with both hands or i would most probibly not be here. But i am i was in a dark place for 14yrs but now i see the light at the end of a waisted 14yrs. But with Rehab to get me clean was a hard choice but the right one for me and my family.They are real proud of me as im so proud of myself.I have great aftercare set up. Im dealing with my chilhood problems wich is so hard but im doing it coz its like a weight being lifted of my shoulders. I want to thank all my friends at MH for the support i would never have got this for wthout you my friends. Im so happy i got this far as a friend of mine was fond dead this morning. Robbie had a methadone overdose leaving behind a wife and a daughter somtimes i feel sad as  i abused Heroin to the max. And my friend was being maintained on 120 mils a day. So to hear this horrible news i kept thinking why Robbie and not me i abused my body for 14yrs and im still here Life is not fair but these are  the dangers of taking drugs R I P Robbie. I have great conciling in place thats a must if we want to sucseed in beating our deamons sadly Robbie never beat his.It puts it in perspective for me anyway. Robbie never abused drugs as i did for so long.But his torment is over My heart goes out to your wife and daughter and your family Robbie ill miss ya my good friend. you are now at peace mate 36 yrs old and so sad you are gone,,,,,,James PS this can be the reality of taking drugs.I have lost a friend but it gives me the courage to see this through to the end

Dear James..
Death is at once
The end of the body's
Old journey
And the beginning of the soul's
New journey.

Im 101 days clean and worked my socks of to get there. Its just so hard to take in what has happened. My friend Robbie had just quit the H and went on the methadone program to stabilise his family life. But why he was allowed to pick up twice weekly , i cant understand. I spoke to Zoe and told me he had took all his methadone why?. But thats two friends iv lost in a over a year. But im glad i stopped as it could so easily be me. And it has made me stronger in my will to beat my addiction. I also want to thank everyone who commented that means so much to me. I still feel numb but my life has to go on. Thank you all so so much it realy does make me feel a wee bit better knowing other ppl care. That is what MH is all about and its helped me get to 101 days without using Again i thank each and everyone of you guys and girls ,,,James

Congratz on your sobriety. You're are proof that you have to want it hard enough, that it can be done and that you can't do it alone. Keep your head up you have come so far and you should be so proud ....you did it most of all for you.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Things will get better once the heart has time to heal.
