No worry I only tried stuff a few times so i don't feel to bad about it I think what I meant was, if I had been an addict I might have not liked myself. Then I thought it must mess with your self esteem. You mentioned it alittle to Ron I would like to hear more of your experiences and Ronnie I am happy for you that you have made such a big change!

p.s Me trying stuff a few times as a teen I see is not the same at all, so I would like to hear all your stories so I can understand better. image

Great post! Seriously I thought just like that growing up because I could walk away from it. Alcoholism and addiction is just one of those things though that you don't understand unless you experience I think. Any sane person would stop it isn't like the addict doesn't see the damage being done to himself and others and it isn't that they don't want to stop it is they can't. Hell you sober up for a while and you tend to not understand what it is like to be in the grip. I know I do at times. They is why I work with new guys because it reminds me of how pitiful of a situation I was in.
