10 years ago I began abusing opiates. 3 years ago I started heroin. 2 years ago i started slamming. 1 year ago I started meth. 45 days ago I picked up felony charges. 30 days ago I got out of detox. 15 days ago I overdosed. 13 days ago I started inpatient and have been sober since!

I even got off the streets into a house again and attempting the daily work grind again which is a healthy distraction for using or even concerning myself with using. I've been offered dope a few times but declined, even snapped at my dealer for bringing up testers of a new batch knowing damn well about my sobriety. Heck he even gave me a long heartfelt speech about being proud of me, then pulled that shit!

I've been also spending hella money on shoes and clothes to counter balance the having money on hand temptation lol.

Thanks! I'm hella proud of you too girl! There is so much more to life than waiting all day for someone to maybe show then nodding out missing out on life. We got our whole futures ahead of us!
