Great work, congrats.
Damn Haz, that's some rehab.

Going to this place really opened my eyes to see how BLESSED I really am even when I dont see it.

Hey bro. Really happy for you! I got clean 7 yrs ago and my life since then has been great! 7 days for narcotic rehab? That wouldnt have worked for me. I wish you the best Haz!

Keep your head up brother. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. 3 years 7 months 21 days. It gets better and easier.

God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change
Courage to change the things I can
And wisdom to know the difference

Nice prayer ; ). The hardest part is before rehab I got myself into some serious situations. Legal issues, no car/license. Im trying to be strong but this is hard.

Own your decisions and mistakes. You will be stronger and happier because of it. Just remember, keep your head up and count those days.....one at a time.

Yea bro, i was in the same boat before I got clean. Just remember that you dont have to repeat those mistakes again. For me it took some serious consequences for me to commit to a program of recovery. You can do!

**peteroy01** · 12-02-2009, 10:19 PM

its hard at 1st but gets easier. been sober(coke) since feb 17th. it took me going to the ER 3 times with a heart attack and almost loosing my wife and little girl. my friends checked me into rehab and i bailed after 7days. then relapsed 3 more times. then one day i was cooking in the kitchen and my little girl(8mon at the time) was laughing in the living room. i went in there and picked her up and she hugged my neck. reality slapped me in the face and i started crying and havent touched the stuff since.

Your wife is an alcoholic? Sorry to hear that. My wife is also an alcoholic and its giving me fits. Ive known about it for 2 years, but she confided in me that its been a problem for 10 years. She hides it so well, it took me a long time to fully grasp the problem.

Sorry to hijack this thread, Congrats on your return to society!

**drdeath613** · 12-03-2009, 01:32 PM

its just as bad as over eating your just killing yourself a lil bit at a time the problem is they dont see it as a problem ( i can stop anytime i want ) there are a few lucky ones who seek help to better one self

u can put yourself in rehab or be put in rehab but the only way it works is if u really want help and can see u got a problem

i didnt know i had a problem when i was drinking i found it fun till one night i tried to walk 1 block home passed out and was choking on my own puke i could of died that night someone called ems to come get me i was lucky i was in the hospital for 5 days 2 of them i was in a coma

10 years later iv found 1-2 beers once in a blue moon is all u really need if u just got to have a drink

Congrats man good to see things are turning around for you.

I'm glad you're doing better. Not-a-drop sober is better than non-functioning alcoholic, but if you find that you're having trouble with it like I did, I suggest looking into the sinclair method and the drug naltrexone. I cannot overstate the way in which it changed my life.
