602 days clean

[stilltrying1965]

I like to thank all the ppl at mh who without there help i would not be were i am today. Also to all those out there who are still fighting their own demons, keep fighting. Even if you fall, get back up and start again. I fell countless times and could see no end to my heroin addiction, but im doing it 602 days down the line. No-one said it was easy, but its worth it. I know ppl say that all the time, but i am living proof that it can be done and my life that was once a living hell is now awesome. I still have my own demons that i have to fight everyday so even if your on 1 day, 1 month etc, just keep fighting. When you feel weak or craving just come on here and post. There is always someone here that will help. This site and the special friends i made on it saved my life. Just never stop fighting because there is light at the end of the tunnel. Now i spend my time with my family. They finally forgave me and started to trust me again and i now feel i have a good part of my life back again and it feels great. So to all you guys fighting out there, plz never give up.. There are some very special ppl on here with the knowledge and encouragement that will help you through it.  So never say it cant be done coz it can. But i also needed outside help, counsellers etc, so you must also get help from them too. The more help you get the greater chance you will succeed. I hope to speak to some of my special friends on here soon as i havent had a computer for a while ( this is just a borrowed one at the moment). So keep up the good work all you guys. I will be praying and sending strength to you all. Thank you all ........James
