Comment on Searching and Fearless Moral Inventory by gwendolynnoles

I really like this post. It hits home with me as a former addict. I quit my addiction long ago, but I am still on the road of recovery that all addicts are on. To take moral inventory, I wrote a memoir of my own struggles with addiction to Xanax and my subsequent incarceration and recovery. It was a hellish journey. The title of my memoir is A Season in Hell, if anyone wishes to read it.

Comment on Oh It’s Not an Addiction, I’m Just Having a Rough Time Right Now by Addiction Recovery

Thanks for coming by! I hear this kind of argument all the time – well I didn’t abuse THAT drug. They don’t see they are just switching one high for another!

So love your postings…. Tonight I had a kid tell me he was clean off his “drug of choice” for 14 days. So obvious question – you still smoking dope? Of course he says pot doesn’t count it isn’t my drug of choice. I told him for the record we don’t drink, use drugs, smoke dope or shoot up. I realize I am a little biased! He was so not happy with me. He insisted he hadn’t relapsed, i insisted he was correct because he hadn’t gotten clean yet……Love DENIAL!
