If so, how did you do it!. What was the turning point for you!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I suppose it depends on how heavily you are into it and what specifically you were into!. My worst drug was Angel Dust!. Wicked stuff!. I guess the turning point for me was my life was out of control and going nowhere fast!. I didn't want to waste my life, I wanted to live!. I was in a lot of pain and used drugs to ease the pain!. Self-medicate if you will!. I quit on my own!. good thing, because my life took an unexpected turn when I got pregnant and wasn't married!. I knew I needed to get my sh*t together and take care of myself if I was going to bring a kid into the world!. My son is 30 now and he is doing a second term in the Army after 4 years in the Navy!. He's going to college and making his way in life!. I cannot tell you how good I feel to grow up and give all that b!.s!. up!! Good luck to you!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The thought of going back to jail did it for me!. I admitted myself into a mental hospital for detox for two days, then to inpatient treatment for 45 days, a halfway house for 45 more days, then into a transitional recovery house for 6 months!. So I was in treatment for nine months!. Addiction is a disease; it will always be with me, and just one pill, puff, or drink will take me right back to where I was!. Regular 12 step meetings (AA or NA), a sponsor and working the steps are what keep me clean from day to day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, I have! I did meth for six years and have been clean for almost a year!.

OK, here how it is!. You have to really want to be clean!. Have a battle plan, like a good rehab and what you will be doing for the next year!. Good support system!. That includes family and friends that are clean!. That means any of your friends that use can no longer be in your life!. Find out the reason why your using!. Most people use because of peer pressure, curiosity or to self medicate!. The continue to use to escape reality!. Some where in their past something has happened that they want to forget and by using drugs you can forget!. So what you then need is the emotional support from a good Doctor or Therapist to help you find out why you were using in the first place!. But I think it's best to do that last so you can go in with a clear head!.

It's a very long process and a lot harder then I ever realized!. But well worth the fight!. Anyway that's how I did it!.

Take care and don't give up!
