yeah you can tell he’s really smart cuz of his rick and morty shirt

'Do you not know who I think I am?' 😂 the addict in me can fully relate right now.

This story is pretty wild

I can't begin to imagine how difficult it must have been to get clean after beginning using drugs at 13. I'm so happy you did; you clearly have strong willpower and no doubt can use this in future to accomplish great things. I wish you all the best in your future and hope you can get everything you want out of life now you are clean 😀

Laura J it’s not accomplished through sheer will power....addicts operate on their own will and by doing so has ruined many lives.....it takes a power not of ones own to begin to start recovery....God’s will not my will is what has helped me and countless others to overcome our addictions....

I thought I was only one to throw away dope... then go dumpster-diving the next day.

I have a very similar story. IT professional turned addict. Married, child, successful 19 Year career that took me around the globe, houses, several race cars, wanting for nothing, etc. I lost/gave away everything and spent over 1/4 million dollars on opiates over a 6-7 year period. Judicial intervention saved my life!

God Bless you Chris! You story is amazing and so I am so proud of you! I don't know you but I know addiction- and your story is one of the worst I have heard and the Best I have heard! Keep doing what your doing honey, and you will keep getting what you are getting in recovery. I can tell you were ready to change and that you are finally happy! Please know that you have a great life ahead of you!

I love to hear how the program works in other addicts lives....step work, sponsorship, daily support from other addicts who understand you when others can’t...and I give this guy kudos for following the traditions of the program and carrying the message to the addict who still suffers... 👍😁

Best story I've heard. Damn cross roads sounds like a great place to go. How do you get into the place. Parts of his story is like mine.

It is difficult to control yourself if you are already hooked in drugs. People tend to have a hard time in controlling their desires, but with the help of the society they will be able to overcome it.

Cool story man !!! I was at crossroads. For 23 days. IDK if I should suck it up and just go back. I got kicked out of east over something stupid I know I can go back. But on the other hand I just want to start a job and get the vivetrol shot. So confused

I love you brother. You're a beautiful person. Glad you're alive :)

He started taking drugs at a young age, but despite everything he had to make that decision of change. An intelligent guy,

This guy is a smart guy, why did he get messed up like this? The courage to move on beyond the drug addiction is what matters bottom line. Keep being strong.

I pray that this man has true repentance from all sins and further sanctification, that his faith in Christ is real. Praise God that He rescued him from drugs in such a dramatic way. I admire this guy for his smarts and success. I would love to have a swank apartment in downtown Dallas! But God gives each his lot.

im 17 and addicted to opiate pills but more important than that, like him, has extreme trouble staying sober since first time at 12 and starting daily a month before my 14th b-day with weed which i am now not addicted to anymore because now i am doing oxys. and i would never if i knew they'd feel so good and cost so much with a little tolerance. im in college and dont want to ruin this particular "course" by stopping and going to rehab. so fuck me i guess.
