2022-08-09 at 6:21 PM UTCOk so everyone found out my secret (that I"m leaving on Thursday) and in the last two and a half months, I've only made 3 friends that I actually consider my friends, one left already and two remain. All of these people suddenly want my information, apparently they looked up to me and thought we had developed a bond. and I had to be honest with them. I don't feel the same way about them.
Some of them got offended, so I had to explain. I wear gold and read constantly, have never stolen from my loved ones, have all of my teeth, am enrolled in college and dress like a fly ass Mr. Rodgers, but they don't have anything in two months that the state or someone didn't give them. I can't be around people like that or I might end up becoming like them.
I tried to phrase it in a non offensive way but I don't want losers in my life that are dumbfucks, liabilities, addicts, and losers. Less than 10% of people going through rehab will have sobriety at 1 year. So the majority of us are going to return to whatever lifestyle we were living before this. It doesn't take a genius to realize that I DON'T want these type of people in my life unless I am selling narcotics to them and even then I don't want them coming in my house or touching me.
What a bummer folks. I could've had three dozen freinds but once again I'm choosing to have the few I want rather than all of them.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2022-08-09 at 8:01 PM UTCI used to be best friends with a guy named Juice and he called my house the Betty Ford Clinic. I wonder if I ever hurt any feelings at 3 am. You gotta get up to get down if you know what I mean.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

FUCK YES
Its like jail man, leave there and literally forget everyone there and pretend it never happened. -
2022-08-11 at 1:33 AM UTCIf you wanted to spare their feelings you could have given them fake contact info. Reality is no one from rehab actually stays in touch with their fellow victims.
Or maybe this is your first time through. (statistics weighing heavily on the side of if won’t be your last)
What struck me more than your apparent regret for the hurting of feelings is your assumption these people are all losers destined to fail and you’re somehow above that possibility. A dangerous “pink cloud” perception for anyone.
It’s important to recognize the difference between cockiness and confidence is to learn the definition of both and understand to recognize how each can define you. -
2022-08-12 at 5:03 PM UTCYa they were all losers that were greatly beneath me. You see, I never borrowed money or stole from my family and friends, I never begged for money, I never sucked dick for beer or money, I never had a desire to use hard drugs day in and day out, living destitute and unhappily. I strove and strived to never have expenses beyond my revenue and anytime I did drugs I sold enough of them to pay for my own habit. I"m hardly typical in the way of someone going to one of these rehabilitation programs and as such I have been blessed with the fact I don't have some sadass fentanyl craving, or missing teeth, or no one that loves me in the world, I'm still pretty physically intact (I have high blood pressure that is well controlled with one medication) & I have my mental capacity like I used to, which is really nice because as a drug user/chronic alcoholic that's rare to find. I consider myself BLESSED that the stints I did sober be it in prison or the 3 1/2 years I didn't drink have provided me with a repairing of my mind, but a realization that I can use drugs (cocaine, crystal meth, marijuana, & LSD) in moderation and that it won't greatly affect my long term cognitive faculties. Now I know you fags might say I am in bad health or not all there, and in terms of temperament or like physical prowess yea I could be better. But if 15 years of polydruga addiction & alcoholism has resulted in: Depression, High Blood Pressure. Oh fuckin well.
I don't have hepatitis, I don't have anyone trying to kill me, I don't owe money to anyone, my credit score is 740, I have a bunch of money saved up, and I got a MacBook. FUCK EVERYONE THAT ISN'T SUCCESSFUL GANG GANG.
Now I start college in 10 days and I'm gonna be successful cuz im gud at skul. and when I'm really successful I'm gonna let everyone know I was a degenerate piece of shit 211 drinking ANGRY alcoholic that felt like a dredge on everyone in his life and the community he occupied until I, not anyone else, changed my life, played the system, and became successful enough to drive around in a KIA with both cadillytic converters intact, got me a tiny Hispanic girlfriend I'm really nice to outside of sex, catch big fish all day in the ocean, own a boat, and then prolly have a kid (or 8 cuz Hispanic women do that really good) then I'mma sit down and die.
Good luck I say to other Junkies. Until you can realize that you will either succeed at getting high or succeed at all other aspects of life, you will never make the distinction to pick the latter and will remain a customer.
I will celebrate my 1 year of sobriety next June 1st with a nice cold Scale & a call to my plug so I can stop, drop & open up shop.
N fuck everyone who doesn't have money. -
2022-08-12 at 6:36 PM UTCThe idea of using drugs in moderation and calling yourself sober could work for someone who does not actually suffer from addiction, or never really had a problem with drug or alcohol abuse.
For actual addicts who have not yet come to terms with their addictions they may have the idea that moderation is a possibility when it comes to drugs or alcohol it’s called denial, these people become convinced that somehow in spite of their addiction they can reduce their consumption or control their level of abuse so that it doesn’t lead to any negative consequences. I encourage them to go ahead and run with this idea until the day they can no longer boast “ they never borrowed money or stole from family or friends, never begged for money, never sucked dick for beer or money, never had a desire to use drugs day in and day out, living destitute and unhappily“ blah blah blah. “
See the trouble with denial is that when the truth comes, you aren't ready, most people don't know what they believe, they only know what they wish to believe, sadly they soon see denial of their weakness only strengthens that weakness.
Trying to moderate drinking or drug use is a slippery slope and 9 times out of 10 will only lead to further abuse. Basically because in addiction having a little of the substance will only lead to wanting more. Cravings will become worse and eventually moderation will go flying out the window.
You can’t have your cake and eat it too, you’re either sober and clean or you’re not, the idea of only using substances infrequently instead of abstaining from them completely is appealing to an addict, but it simply doesn’t work with recovery.
For plenty of people with substance abuse problems, considering moderation as a solution is only another form of denial. Eventually, the addict will see that their attempts at moderating their behavior are futile. Abstinence for any mind altering substance used to escape reality is the only option that allows people to manage their addiction successfully. Assuming that’s what they want.
I wish you the best, but I’d definitely place my money on your eventual failure given your attitude. -
