I have 18 months today....going to go do some H&I tonight... - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Blake · 08-10-2006, 11:46 AM

WOOT WOOT 18 months and no dope....wouldn't have thought it was possible 2 years ago.

Why is it that no matter how many times I go do H&I, I still get nervous? I figure I'd be used to it by now.....

Hi Blake,
I just saw this on the forums page! That's so great! 18 months is terrific- I wait for the day when I hear that from my son! Re the H&I, and you will do just fine... no worries, man!

Cool!! 18 Months is Awesome!! H&I is right where you are supused to be right now. I just got back from doing my H&I Commitment, every 2 weeks in a detox. Grass roots, Carry the message that you never have to use again. Thats what Im talking about!!!!!!!!!!!

Peace,
Todd J.

Blake · 08-10-2006, 09:15 PM

Just got home.....I allways am nervous before I do H&I, but with out fail after I start talking it fades away and when I'm done, on the way home, I am so full of gratitude...

I love this program...and all yall...

WTG Blake. You are one of those people I look at and think "that is the kind of success I want". Thanks for being here man.

Blake · 08-10-2006, 09:57 PM

and thank you for being here brad.

there is nothing special about me, I am not unique or different, if I can do this thing, you can do this thing. I fully believe that 1000% ANY addict can stop using, lose the desire to use and find a new way to live even a dirty twisted junky like me.
