- Drugs
Start by describing the situation that changed your life or a loved one’s life. I battled a heroin addiction for 17 years but thanks to the 12-step fellowship today I can say I’m one year of complete abstinence. Based on your situation or story, was there a turning point that prompted the need for change or help? Yes, I hit rock bottom and lost everything. I was close to killing myself, but a picture of my two boys is what saved me. How did you or your HERO get help? I got help by going into detox then a 12-step rehab center and being open and honest from day one. Based on your experience, what lessons did you learn? Do you have any advice to give? Do not take drugs– it takes everything from you in the end. It slowly kills your soul. If you or your loved one is in recovery, describe what life is like today. My life today is amazing. I never dreamed or thought I’d ever be where I am in life. Now I take my recovery day by day. Since doing that and all the suggested things, I’m one year drug and drink free after 15 years of bad heroin addiction.
