I'm Sober. What now?

How so?
Yes of course, the 3 reasons is to validate your argument. I was being sarcastic
However that was not the case before. I mean, not everyone is rich, specially if you are hooked on h.
You are not healthy, and get sick everyday
And you ARE aging potentially faster.

Who doesn´t like being high, I get that. I actually do enjoy that very much.
But to think that my addiction was nice, and that I did not want to be free, it´s ridiculous with all respect.

This is nothing to do with "100% inclusive or exclusive". I don´t understand what your point is..

By validating my argument, you are invalidating your statement.

Your statement was "everyone wants to be free of addiction"
My argument was that not "everyone wants to be free of addiction"

And, since you listed 3 factors that could potentially invalidate your own statement, even though you didn't type them until after you posted your original statement, I assume that you knew them as you wrote that.

So, now I'm thinking that you knew your statement to be false before I even made my argument against it.

Wait, what was your question?
 
Never mind. Too late/early for this sort of talk.
I was just trying to help out Fizz with his issues.
 
When we're incapable of following the good advice we her when not sober, whether it's our own or another persons, it seems like such a great idea and we feel like shit for not doing it. When we do get sober it becomes things we now can and somewhat feel like doing. My advice is to start taking small steps towards integrating those things like exercise, into your life rather than jumping in full force. You can make it work!

As long as it took to start using, start abusing, then start getting help from drugs, it will take to start doing right by yourself. Albeit in this instance you will start seeing a positive return much quicker since it's something you know you should have been doing.

Good luck.
 
I agree with you totally.
I´m sober for few years. I use methadone though, on low maintenance dosage.
I´m off street drugs and all that goes around with it.
Have changed my habits, friends. Have close to zero now.
See a doctor every month, therapy also. And work a lot!
I Work and travel a lot but am always tired.
Don´t have cravings, as strong as I used to but still think about it sometimes.
Used to take large amounts of opiates, all of them, every day, all the time.
Couldn´t stay off for 8 hours because I would w/d. Spent all my money, spent my family´s money, etc.
It took some time for me to get me going on the right direction. Had quit many times before, but this one seems to be the one.

I am not too sure what your financial situation is but how about travelling? I wish that was what I have done a long time ago and I would have probably loved it! I am pretty sure it will give you a brand new experience in life and know yourself better through travelin, meet new people, get to know different cultures and even learn languages!! Just thinking about this makes me want to travel right now!

Actually travel was the thing that helped most.
I have stopped using but was always very down, no friends anymore.
Had disappointed lots of family members, etc, etc.
But it´s very true that travelling brings you new experiences and good new memories.
I did learn to manage fairly well in foreign languages in the process and that´s amazing.
