Drug Sabbatical Support & Appreciation Thread Mk. III: New Beginnings

Voluntary work?

I'm over the moon. My daughter just got offered a really good part time job with a really groovy, young womans clothes shop ( better not say the name of it). We needed a bit of good news in our family... so arrrr I AM SO CHUFFED!!
 
Yeah, I spoke to someone about voluntary work of the yesterday.

They said "Voluntary work is great, but aside from helping others, you have to make sure you're gaining something from it too".

I nodded and agreed with them.
Shame I can't volunteer to do something really interesting?

I could volunteer to help fight the war against drugs!
Crime busting caper!
 
I wanted to do volunteer work, a few years ago, but couldn't find much. Then again, I wasn't exactly in the right place, and probably would have let them down.
 
I'm needing a break from it all I think. Getting in too much debt drinking every day and night again in stupid amounts, think I'm calling it a day after end of this month til christmas with the class A's. All my money goes on drink and drugs. Fun at the time, shit when you've nothing to show for it.
 
I'm out of prison, and clean, (used when i got out two days ago, but cant be arsed with it anymore. After five weeks inside, I felt only a tiny bit. And banged up straight away, so decent stuff should have given me some sort of feeling) Not worth wasting my money on!

I lost everything when i was inside, flat, cats, laptop, android tablet, found the council had cleared my flat and given some of my clothes to the local free shop , i managed to rescue a top that I was keeping that a passed away BL'er had given me, thank god i found it.

Here's to new beginnings, and moving up north (dads coming to pick me up :) , cant wait. This city will ruin me, well it has ruined me, I dont want to see what else it can do, and im weak at the moment, and at risk and dont want to end up back in prison.) in a few weeks when ive seen my 5 week licence out.

So glad your OK Cherry<3 was only checking your profile last night to see if you had been on.

Hope it works out for you, a chance for a new start.

All the best
 
Hey Cherry chuck. <3 I didn't know you were in prison. I've been wondering where you were too.
I bet it was horrendous!.. good you got off the drugs though ay?

Hope you make the right choices re where you're going to be living etc now you're free.

<3
 
All the best Cherry, and I hope you manage to make a go of it this time. You've got a great opportunity to do so and you've showed you're capable of picking yourself up and moving on, however horrific thing have been for you, and it sounds like an absolutely devastating time.

Hope it all works out. :)

All the best Cherry! I hope a new place will help you make a new start! <3
 
^ I'm returning home, to be with family for support, plus I miss them, I've managed a lot on my own, but this I have tried, and can't seem to quite get it.

Can't handle anymore new places either, had too many of them the past few years. Returning home sometimes is the only thing to do, i'm not looking at it as a step backwards, more just the right thing to do. :)

Thank you to everyone who posted well wishes <3
 
CCF i don't even know you personally but i'm also glad to see you are ok. It sounds like you are doing the right thing moving home.

Good luck
 
Good luck, Cherry. You belong at home, I've said so for years. You'll stay clean, because there won't be temptation. You've just proved you can go without, so keep that in mind.
 
^ Thank you. However, I have to disagree with your comment,

You'll stay clean, because there won't be temptation. You've just proved you can go without, so keep that in mind.

I proved I can go without as I was in prison with no free access, staying away from it when it's around me is a totally different thing. I've relapsed already, but haven't used for a couple days now and trying to keep it this way,

Contact any charity, they are usually happy to take you on as a volunteer doing something even if it is just helping out in the office / shop / at fund raising events. I used to do it a few years ago, got involved in events organising and it was pretty good fun. Organised stand up comedy nights, a mongolian feast, film nights and other events, which you get to go for free of course because you're helping out which usually just involved standing around drinking tbh.
 
If anybody has noticed a total lack of Albion since friday it's because my sabbatical came to an end a bit abruptly, not really able to get my head on straight atm which I should of seen coming, yet didn't.
