I'm a realist...I agree with you. Only because been there, done that.
If they're in the room or at a neighbors house...so am I. If I look, I'll take..if I look, take, I'll lie. That's my job. I'm an addict. It's in my resume.

Gundo:
If I was in recovery, this is one job I wouldn't go on. Call in sick.
Best wishes,

I do not go through ppls stuff I know there is pills there because my client is elderly I am a very professional person im a chef that has my own business but its kind of hard to miss them when they are siting on her kitchen table see?  I have taken pills before? damn right im a addict and admit to it have never stolen from a client because of my reputation but I STOLE PILLS FROM MY SICK MOTHER!!!!! IM Sick you mean to tell me you had a habit and got your pills legit? come on who's going to believe that if you order them over the internet that also illegal we are addicts we are trying to change its not easy and it doesn't happen over night but by the grace of God I am forgiven

Heres my take on your situation, How did you know there would be Pills in this house? Took some before  I'll surmise. If there is Pills in this house and your alone you'll look ,and if you look you'll take some.. Maybe not do them right then, but you'll take some. You'll come back on this web-site and tell us all you didn't take any .. All the while you'll have the ill-gotton gains in your possession.... I hope you post and tell me I'm wrong.......  This is why I have 8 pills in my medicine cabinet, so I don't play these games... If your Ready your Ready,( it will always be available) your Life Awaits... I truly wish you the Best... Good luck! Shot Rock Day 20

I think as addicts we can in a sense......judge other addicts because we know the game.  I've never heard of a quick swift kick in the a*ss  from one addict to another ever hurting anyone.....the most it can do is help. I've needed many swift kicks in my time and I thank those who gave them to me.  Maybe not at the time, but I thank them now.

Drugs turned us ALL into someone we werent,
drugs made us ALL do things we regret,
drugs clouded ALL of our judgement and decision making....
drugs ruined the people we USED to be...
i dont think anyone here is above it all..
i would be the last one here to judge ANYONE...

have a wonderful day all!!
