Nice to meet you and welcome to SR.
What an awesome first post! Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to share your story here.
Good luck to you on your journey, if you want to change you can. You really can. It's entirely in your hands and you'll get bucket loads of support from the good folk here should you chose to give it a whirl.
Being clean and sober has proved to be the best drug in the world for me and I've tried most of them. :-)
Sending you some hugs from the other side of the world.
Hey Tufty, thanks!
Yes I agree - being free and sober can definitely be the best drug if you're making the most of it! When i'm doing something I love, when i'm really living and participating in life, immersed in nature and opening my eyes to all that's beautiful around me the last thing I want to do is cloud that beauty in a drug haze. Living in London isn't for me, city life ins't for me. it overwhelms me and seperates me from the natural world! Time to move on
Well done on defeating your battle against addiction!
