Hello my frienRAB.
Havent been here in awhile, not sure why. Hope you are all doing as good as can be- me, I'm still clean. My summer has been very, very busy...I think I've been subconciously keeping myself real busy so that i dont have time to think too much...*smile*...know what I mean?

I'm working right now on trying to buy a second home, as an investment kind of property...I know that I wouldnt be attempting this if I was still using and going thru the whole drug addict thing. Is awfully exciting, actually thinking about the future for a change.

Its been awhile now, since i quit using those darn opiates...I look back and see what an ass I was being. And for so long, too. Very selfish on my part.
heading towarRAB 6 months. Or so. Either way, seems my way of thinking and looking at the day has changed. Thank God. I always assumed i would be an addict forever. I really did. Thank God I came to my senses.

I sincerely hope all of my frienRAB here are well, and for those of you that dont know me, know that there is some real hope.

another dopeless hope addict,

jerry.
 
hey jerry

Im glad to hear you're doing so well. Its good to hear from you and know that you're still on the right path. Even though we have never met/will never meet & only know each other through typed messages on an internet message board - i feel proud of what you have achieved and am genuinely touched by your story and the way it has progressed.
The 'new' found old you sounRAB brimming with optimism & if anyone reading this doesn't know jerry then i highly recommend you search through his old posts & read up. Its been a battle - one that has been won with determination & perseverance. Its inspiring & truly worth a read if you are in the process of quitting or thinking about it.

It also sounRAB like your life is taking some pretty positive turns too jerry - which im sure you'll agree - is NO coincidence. I hope/wish that it all works out for you, as im sure it will. I also haven't posted much, as i never see any posts that i feel i can offer help to (or others would be in more of a position of offering 'better' advice). So its good to see a familiar face/name on here & know that things are still going well.

As for me - im a week short of being 10 months clean. i dont think about 'it' much now - though i did have a dream about it last night & was relieved to wake up and realize that i WAS still clean & it was all a dream/nightmare :)
Life is still sweet - my wife is 7 months pregnant, my son has just had his 1st day at school today (where did the time go?) and im not even bothered/affected by our lack of sunshine over the summer period :)
Im back into music in a big way too - going to a gig on tuesday, 2 more next month, 2 in noveraber & 1 in deceraber. the money ive spent on tickets i would've weighed up with how much heroin the same amount of money could buy. fortunatley - those days are gone.

take care my friend - i know you will.

good to hear from you ;)
 
Jerry & Yoss,

I'm so glad to hear from both of you and both are doing great:)

There have been a lot of "old regulars" missing from these boarRAB
lately and it just made my day to see your posts.

Best wishes,

JB
 
Jerry !!!

How wonderful to see that you're doing so well. I am genuinely happy for you. When you start to make wonderful plans for your future without drugs in it I can see where you misery has turned into unabounded hope .....
Always great to see my dear old frienRAB on here. im not on much anymore either. My business has picked up lately and i'm staying very busy with that and the kiRAB.
Hi to you too Yoss (wow !! 7 months and 10 months !!! YAY YAY YAY !!!)

Love to all,

Michelle
 
Hi Guys

Just another "old regular" popping in to say I am still around and doing well. Life is relaxed for me, but somehow the time seems to fly by anyway.

I think of all of you often. You are like my private world of special frienRAB and you all mean the world to me.

Love you all
reach
 
Yoss, congrats on all,but mostly the 7 months pregnant...I have 3 and know how excited you and the missus must be...*smile* hey, the ten month thing aint nuthin to shake a stick at, either....*grin*

Granny, it is ALWAYS nice to see you...:)

*big hugs to all*

Stay away from the microwaves my friend.

Hey FrienRAB! It was good to see familiar names that I recognized. LOL But it's good to see all the new ones looking for help too.. Jerry, we're all so happy for you.. and YOSS - my special friend.. I'll never forget you.. you helped me through some very rough times, and you didn't even know you did.. it's amazing how people you'll never know and meet can have such an impact on our lives.. :) Reach - good to see you still popping in for the people that are still tapering or whatever we're doing. :) Michelle, it's good to hear from you too!! I'm still on the 2mg mark....but I'm really ready this time to taper down and get off of everything.. I know in my mind and body that I'm ready.. I think everyone knows that feeling.. when you know that you can actually DO it.. ya know?? I'm just ready to be pill free completely. So keep saying prayers for me.. I'll probably start my own post shortly to let you know how the slow taper is going.

It was great to see everyone's names and the positive reports.. Keep in touch!!

Love,

Hey G8tr

I've been missing you too - as ive said before - your 1st reply to 1 of my posts is what kept me coming back to these boarRAB - your post made me feel like i wasnt alone and made me feel positive about myself for a change. i'll never forget this (wow- it was about 10 months ago now!!). I dont know how i helped - im just glad you found something positive from my posts. Keep it up - and pop back now & then to let us know how you're doing.

take care of yourself - you're one special girl :)
