Drug Addiction Stories & Info

I justin am now part of the sober and clean group.

I started using drugs socially after work, and on the weekends. I had two amazing jobs, lots of friends and a cute little apartment. I was drinking as well. Then it got out of hand I started using drugs everyday, all day and then I lost both my amazing jobs. Eventually I lost my apartment, all my possessions, friends and I lost myself. I started using other drugs heavily.  My life was out of control. I had no one beside me, and I completely lost myself.

Today I am five months clean, happy, healthy, and finishing an amazing program with so much to give. I learned that I dont need drugs, possessions, but only my sobriety, family and my own self-respect.  I have changed so much for the better, and I have respect and I love my life.

I am writing this to let everyone know my story and I hope you read it and think about the choices you’re making that are and will effect your being.

Thank you,

To all the younger generations out there, and I am speaking to the 16 year olds out there.

I want to express myself to you and let you aware of all the negative and bad consequences there are to using drugs and alcohol. At such a young fresh start in your lives, use your clean, clear-minded thoughts and put them to good use.

There are many directions we can go in our lives and taking the right path can change your whole life. I can speak from experience that at many occasions I did not always make the right choices and it has caused me to be where I am today—in a rehabilitation center, focusing on cleaning up my life at the age of 45.

I have made a lot of wrong decisions with my life and the consequences of those choices have cost me a lot of money and an enormous amount of interference with all aspects of my life. If you want to be within the group at your age, please be wise and take the right path that will benefit you in the long run. You will be a lot happier person with great inspirations to do positive things with your life. Please do not get into the wrong crowd just to fit in.

There is a lot of help out there, but avoid those bad choices and stay strong. You will be a better person for making the right decision. Stay away from Drugs & Alcohol use.
