Here I Go Again
Permalink  

Hi, my name is Pau and I'm a recovering addict...My drug of choice was prescription meds, specifically Benzodiazepines.  I was in Recovery back in 2007 but then I relapsed after a few months and the aftermath was Prison.  I have been under the custody of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice since 2008.

I was recently paroled back in May of this year through the grace of God.  My sobriety date is Sept. 16, 2010.  Even during my incarceration I was still using on/off (when I got the chance), until September of last year when I decided to give it all up and give it to God.  I got tired of being sick and tired.  This has been the longest I've been sober since the first time I used.  Thank you for listening

Sponsor, steps,meetings, service, trust God thats how simple it is oh and dont use in between.

If it gets painful get to a meeting or call your sponsor or a clean friend, takes effort, takes continued desire.

Sometimes we lose the desire because the compulsion kicks in if you use the obsession kicks in and your done, back to jail/prison do the whole thing over and over a few times gets real tiring I know,,, been there done it for years and got willing thru that experience.

 

Hang in there you can do this too..
