Recovery Log

I'm writing this to keep track of my own well being. My hope is continued progress in recovering from heroin addiction. I also hope that my experience will help another struggling addict. I've finally reached a point in my life where I no longer want or need to use mind altering chemicals. This is a fucking miracle. 362 days ago I detoxed off HEROIN/FETYNOL/SUBOXONE, as a result of being jailed for my 4th possesion of narcotics. I was released 5 months later. Smoked dabs everyday for 8 weeks. I relapsed on hard drugs a few times and was caught with crystal meth before I had a chance to fully immerse myself into my drug of choice. This was my 5th and 6th felony drug possesion. Even so I was actually smiling in my mug shot. This was the first time I've been arrested and didn't have to kick cold turkey. Since then I've been clean off of everything. My clean date is 4-6-18. Make no mistake, I am a junkie, however as a result of prayer, meditation and an active life in recovery ive reach a peaceful state of being. For the first time in my life i want to experience life, good and bad, in the moment. Because being present in the stream of consciousness makes me zen as fuck!

Tomorrow I'll share my story in a new post.
