12 Years Clean Today!(2007) 13 Years TODAY !!!!

[littlesally]

I just want to say I am twelve years clean today.
No drugs, no alcohol for twelve years!

I am not saying this to impress anyone but it impresses the **** out of me! I truely believed I was going to die with a needle hanging out of some part of me that still had accessible veins.
Remembering back to that day walking into a treatment centre, wondering what on earth had gone wrong with my life, is strange. Like thinking of another person that I once knew.

Life is great.

There's been some really hard times, especially the past six months (6 months today that Will died) and I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has helped me, sent me messages of support and their thoughts.

Thank you to everyone, it really meant a lot.

To beat any addiction no matter how small is a great achievement and you have every right to be proud of yourself.

Sally , I remember when we first spoke in chat OTR , you were always honest and open about your past with me and we have had some long , long chats.

12 years is fantastic , you deserve every day to be proud of yourself , not just every year . I know every day is a new day so stick at it.

Sally many, many congrats!! xxxxxx

This is a hard one for me as I've discussed/debated with Amy, Cet, Tools and one other person who I can't remember the name of now, in chat one night.

Don't want to say too much, but put it this way I lost a sibling....who had his whole life ahead of him and he abused my parents love and trust etc.....You know the score.

BUT - you have done well girl xxxx Just wished my brother had your willpower to do something about it.
