That was a really thoughtful reply. Thank you. You are right about keeping busy! I guess it can help keep you away from mischief. It sounds like you are really making progress. I’m really impressed. It is so easy to mask feelings with drugs. Amazing how they creep in. I think you are right about tapering until off. Once i am finished…I think I would need to have my leg chopped off before I took pain medicines again! I have never tried recreational drugs. I always thought I would probably like them too much so stayed away! And looking at my current situation – that is probably a fair assessment. I think it’s brilliant that you are going to stop taking coke. Takes a lot of courage and conviction. Do you ever wonder what kind of person you might be without it? I do. I wonder if I would make better decisions – if I would laugh more or be at peace.
