4 weeks suboxone free!!

Well it has been 4 weeks now and things are starting to fall together nicely. In the past I was told by many people that once you get clean, good things start to happen. I was in denial like most people but now that Im clean I can honestly say I am having better luck than ever and I am very satisfied. It isn't as "boring" as I thought it would be, in fact I am doing activities that I've never done before, normal activities with normal people and i actually enjoy them! Drugs used to be my main focus during the day but now, it is to be as healthy as possible and that is a high of its own. I started a new job yesterday after losing ANOTHER job a little over a month ago because of drugs. I can honestly say, if i didn't lose my job I would still be dabbling today. i am greatful and now a firm believer that everything happens for a reason as long as you do something about it. If you are struggling and happen to read this, just know its possible, I was one of the most negative people and I still pushed thru it, it is very possible!

I love to hear that Jimi. You sound awesome. Contrats on 30 days. I know what you're saying about not believing things would be better. I had to trust what others said, I really didn't think it would get better and better. You are only at the beginning, imagine, it keeps getting better. The clear head and genuine motivation will open doors you didn't know where even there. I'm really happy for you bud. Keep up the good work. Hope you can keep this job, I think you will.

Thanks! and yes it does feel better, not to mention how much clearer I am thinking. I thought I was functioning better on drugs but honestly I think you are just living in your own head when you are on drugs and it is all an illusion.
