Twenty years ago I took a good long hard look at myself. I was hooked on cocaine. I was a very bad mess and one day I did some drugs with a friend. When I saw her, I saw myself, and I could not live that way any more. So I stopped. Cold turkey. Just like that. I learned to hate that drug as much as I had loved it, and that was an awful lot, and I left every thing, every place and every one I knew involved in that world. I never went to a meeting. I never went back to that world. There were years of withdrawals, but once you get them down, they are more tolerable than an addicted life, and I do not have a track mark today, I am just blessed wtih a recovery that I wish for you all.

" Thank You for telling us Your Story and How you became clean it is much like my Story. I too got to a Point in my Life after Years of addiction where I was so sick of myself and how I was not Living and how I was Killing myself That I Gave it up over night and walked away from everything to do with it friends and all. I do have a very Good Support system much Like NA or AA that I can't do with out. I only have a Year and 9 months and Look forward to 20 years but it has been the best year and 9 months that I can remember in a Very Long Time. I too am Very Blesed and Thankful for another Chance. Recovery is New Life "
