[stilltrying1965]

Im 85 days clean today and im happy my family are proud of me thats an awesome feeling. But i could not open up till i got all the AFTERCARE in place. Now i feel like a changed man. Everything in my life is going great.The w/ds were hard infact aweful but very doable, but then again i could not fail this time. I looked like something out of a concentration camp so it was my last chance. And that ment for me rehab, drug tests witch i still get but iv passed everytime with flying coulors The bit i needed was lots and lots of AFTERCARE And now i have the AFTERCARE im doing so well Myself my wife my children are so happy. And im so happy that iv made them proud of me. Its one awesome feling, For those who helped me through the dark days i thank you all from my heart. Im now living a clean happy and contented life for the 1st time in 14 years. To all that find it hard with gods help courage detremination willpower and as my sister says we must turn into warriours and fight with all we can. I for one am the happest iv ever been . I thank you all at MH for your notes and encouragement it all means so so much to me.,,,James

Sara thank you like i kept reading AFTERCARE is a must. It was only when i got my AFTERCARE i realised that my war against my addiction i started to feel a lot better for getting rid of the old baggage Now i feel so different happy and have some structure in my life So Sara you and so many others made me think AFTERCAREand you guys were100% correct for without it i dont think i would be were i am today. I have the tools to get through the bad days. Like you told me Sara even ppl who dont take drugs have bad days. So im going to say know matter were you are in your recovery without AFTERCARE it is a lot harder to do it without AFTERCARE AFTERCARE AFTERCARE i think this is the key Well it was for me A very happy and proud addict And plz always keep your guard up thats also so so true Sara as most who have fought addiction will already know Thank you all at MH you guys rock,,,,James
