Esmerelda, one of our senior members likes to advise new folks to act as though they will be the first in history to get straight and sober from their Drug of Choice, that no one has done it before, and by gum, they will be the first, come hell or high water. It sounds like you could write the book on that idea.
I think you should look forward, Esmerelda, to being the person that can do this, and then help others through their test by sharing your experience, your strength and encouragement. Good for you, I think you are going to be just fine. Keep us posted, please. I think you should get a special hat.
