I hope it can be an inspiration to those who need it. I'll try to get back on the boards more actively. I've come a long way, I have a long way to go, but damn is this the great feeling ever! :)

I think it is great when someone in long term recovery (relatively speaking) is able to be on this website and help inspire/guide those of us struggling with our nascent and awkward attempts at sobriety but I totally understand that for some people once they are done with their drug fueled past, they are done with all things drug related including this website. So thank you for coming back and sharing your success with us. <3 <3

The people on this website contributed to and continue to contribute to my sobriety. Rehab didn't work my first and only time, and I didn't like the local NA communities. Bluelight did for me what those things do for others. I'll be here to share and offer what advice I am able. Good people get trapped in addiction every day and need support. Let's all help each other and anyone who asks for it. Thanks for the kind words.

NSA, I know i already said this but thank you thank you thank you!!!
 
Hey everyone!!! First and foremost I love you all and the help I've received on my journey to sobriety.

I git 2 years sober on Dec 12 2015. I never thought I could do it but I did it and SO CAN YOU.

3 years ago I was spending all of my money on roxi percs oxy you name it I snorted it ingested it, just wanted to feel better.

If I can break my addiction I know you can too. Please read through everyone's posts and contribute... I can tell you first hand this is the site you need to visit a lot. It helps you to not feel alone. People don't look down on you they support you and so do i.

3 years ago I was taking 120mg minimum a day of opioids, was single, having one night stands, lived alone, went to a job I hated, and hung around people who didn't care if I OD'd or not. FUCK those people you don't need them. Fuck thay lifestyle it brings nothing but emptiness and depression.

I'm now happily married 10 months, and am adopting my wife's 3 boys from her previous marriage. You don't have to do what I did to get better, but what I'm saying is NEVER GIVE UP THE GOOD FIGHT. You are so important, a lot of times to people you don't even know yet.

I'm agnostic, I don't know if God set me up with this scenario to help me with my addiction. What I do know is, when I STOPPED THINKING ABOUT MYSELF and MORE ABOUT THOSE IMPORTANT TO ME, I lost my need for those poisons.

Love, attention, and a feeling of pride in oneself trump all this other bullshit we've been dragged into.

I'm with you, Blughtlight I'd with you. It's time to get better everyone. Maybe 2016 is the hear your life turns completely around. If you WANT IT BAD ENOUGH, you can beat it. If you want to keep living in misery with a whoa is me mentality, then that's what the rest of your life will be folks. Awful.

Let's kick 2016s ass together. Get healthy. Find love. Find a purpose. Find someone to lean on. Come to Blue light and express those feelings of anger or confusion. These people are literal life savers.

Thank you for reading this and, again, I hope this touches at least one person to find the strength to say you know what? I'm in control.

Signing off for now, TryingToGetBetter - Kevin
 
Also please feel free to PM me. I'll try to check my inbox if anyone wants advise or just to talk about what's going on. I'll check other boards and continue adding to my own. TTGB
