      The important thing is you have discovered this and are comfortable with that knowledge. That in and of itself is a big deal.

        yes, the lesson here was self-discovery-- as difficult a lesson as that was.

        i admit that i’ve been through a similar one myself. i quit heroin 20 years ago.

      Did religion get you there? I don’t recall anything about it in church. In fact they SERVED alcohol at my church.

        I don’t know about a lot of religions, but have so far only heard about Mormons banning coffee. Everything else seems to apply to multiple (that I know of) except that. But might hear of another today, I’ll be one of the lucky 10,000.

      Congratulations, sincerely.

      I’ve been on the world since before I can remember. It used to be pretty fun, honestly, but I can tell it’s just eating my soul away bit by bit. Unless something changes soon there won’t be anything left.

      Just kidding, I hate this place. I really am happy for you though. It’s not easy.
