What happened?

Big 30

Well I had been saying I was going to quite running the streets and stuff at age 30. I figured that was over the hill and I would need to really get it together by then. I had tried several failed relationships to perhaps try to settle me down but these things were just unable to stop me.

My Solution

Instead of stopping the party train, I found a different solution. It seemed as I was getting older my hangovers and ability to function on and off the job seemed to be getting worse. I was unable to drink like I wanted to and still maintain a stable life style. Plus as the date approached for the big 30 I needed some excitement in order to give me some great thrills for the end of the party line. I needed something a bit more powerful!

Methamphetamine

Crank! That was the answer. It seemed to solve several of my problems at once. I could work like a dog and still drink like I wanted and the lifestyle added plenty of thrills to my seemingly dull late 20’s. And it seemed that everybody was doing it! No big deal—It was the drug of choice! My apartment complex was one big tweaking family!

Survival

This period of time I called the “summer of drugs.” Except it turned into a few years. What seemed like a really great time at first was turning into a survival game. I knew I was going downhill fast but seemed unable to do anything about it. Until somebody special came along…

Children

Our most precious gift. When I found out I was going to have a child I kinda freaked out. I had no idea how I was going to raise I child and be a junkie at the same time so I knew something was going to have to give. By the time she was born I was off the hard drugs but was still drinking like a fish. It was not until after several months of being completely broke and unable to support my family that I finally stumbled into a 12-step program. It was by their advice and direction that I finally learned how to stop.
