" Deep down the most important would be knowing that I am not dependent on any drug to survive day by day and to be a productive person in society. It is a great feeling to be independent away from the meth. Also important, of course, is taking care of my family, knowing that I am not hurting my family with them worrying about me, and keeping all the nice material things that I have acquired...instead of thinking of how much dope I can get for them, lol. Great question Eddie. "

" It is nice for me to stay clean and sober for all the fancy, nice reasons. But the real reason is for myself. I could never stop using because of love, hope, family, work, or anything else. Except for myself. It is a selfish program.

My bottom was inbetween my ears, that is where I kept my skidrow. That is where my Hell lies.

I got sober for myself. And by doing that one thing for myself I have been blessed to keep a family, house, loved ones and all the other icing on the cake.

If my family decided to use while I am sober I would walk away from them in an instant. God knows this and with the exception of my son, my wife will never use again. As long as I stay clean and sober for today again. "
