another thing dude, if you have only used drugs and **** in 4 years ******* WHAT that amazing man if you dont keep doing it for weeks, that considered normal, man i know healthy people they drink like each weekend and live normal lives, if did what you just did, i would still be on a bender, i wouldnt have stopped at just that, so ******* good work for you, know what im saying, man even if you got off your face once every three months would be considered pretty healthy and normal. Relax, how are you doing anyway now?
i cant give you much advice about abuse, i just jumped off of methadone and i have OCD but what i have learned is to totally ignore my thoughts, i take em like you would bumping your elbow man. However the anxiety is what kills me, i never got it as thoughts dont worry me at all anymore, but my anxiety is ******* debilitating. Also i think just maybe your being a little hard on your self, man your a human with feelings a heart a mind, give your self a break if you can and have done it before spent years off of drugs you can do it again, so dont beat yourself up, lifes a journey and ours are all different.
You got love, guts and some ******* awesome wisdom, so what you took some drugs and alcohol, at least enjoy what fun you did have on em. You got everything kiddo, just lighten up on yourself eh?
