Article: Me and my monkey, confessions of a white collar dope-fiend.

[PriestTheyCalledHim]

I found this article randomly one night while searching and it's relevant to recovery, sobriety, and people who used all sort of drugs to see what they would do, or to experience them, and wound up becoming addicts.

Wow, that was long! I have to admit that I started skimming in the middle but it is a good read. Certainly agree with everything the guy concludes. What i like best is where he doesn't conclude anything (for instance what causes addiction) and is able to stay comfortably in between theories.

I remember reading this years ago on this very site.

Hello...just checking in with the sober crowd. Nobody's posting? What happened? People fell off the wagon? I'm kind of jealous of sober living bs, don't have to worry about lining up scoring just to keep ahead of the sickness.
Eh, maybe someday.
Peace, sober/wannabe sober folks.
