Hey.  I just thought I'd take a few mins to share my story.

I used to be that person who was always looking for a high.  I would encourage others to use drugs and get them into bad situations.  I didn't really care that my life was falling apart or that my true friends were falling away from me.  I thought I was having fun.  I thought I was living the life.  It was just one huge party.  But it wasn't.  There are a lot of people I've hurt.  A lot of people I have gotten into drugs.  And it's taken me a long long time to get to the point where I finally see I was wrong.

I went to rehab in July 2008.  The program saved my life.  It gave me the chance to get my life back.

Sober and Clean.

But I still haven't been able to make up the damage I've caused everyone.  I'm working on it, but it is taking time.  Honestly, nothing makes me sadder than to know that I've gotten the people I love into the hell that is addiction.  And if they didn't get addicted themselves they still put up with my addiction and all the problems that I caused.

I guess the main point in all this is encourage a drug free world.  Fight drugs as much as you can.  And get the word out.  Check out this web site.  They have some really good PSAs ib addiction www.drugfreeworld.org
