Before someone decides to attack me or my post, I'm not against people who want to get a little high on pot or get a buzz drinking. My problem was I got to the point I was getting stoned instead of high. I didn't drink to get a buzz, I drank to get drunk.
So 25 years ago I made the decision to take back some control of my life, and that's why I'm sure that I'm still alive to this day. So just remember, If you find yourself being sick and tired of being sick and tired, there are other choices.
gratz wagon :). that is an accoplishment
congrats wagon i have had family members going through the same thing since i was a kid and 25 years sober is longer than ive been born ha so happy for ya bud
thats awesome wagon and i think all of your threads are great
Congratulations Wagon596. Keep up the phenomenal work. I am very proud of you.
Congratulations!
Keep it up! I smoke bud and drink but my drinking is not a problem. And for someone to know they have a problem and stop doing it for 25 years, Is outstanding!
GRATZ. Now let's have a drink to celebrate.
congrats
I respect your post wagon. I used to be a heavy drug and alcohol user myself so I know exactly where you are coming from. I was so sick and tired of being sick and tired. I was getting locked up to much and wasting my life. The last time I was released from prison I knew it was this time I was going to change my life. I met my wife and from there my life has changed for the best. I have my own family and I have to much to lose now and I think about my wife and kids and what would happen to them, instead of myself If I ever went back to my old ways. I have been off of drugs and heavy drinking for 8 years now. I am happier than ever doing what I love, being with family and playing poker. :D Thanks for sharing Wagon...
Having seen people go though this i really would like to congratulate you. This is really an accomplishment. Getting rid of an addiction is definitely something to be proud of.
Kudos to you sir!
I've never met you but I'm still very proud of you! My mom is a former addict who's been sober going on 20 years so I know the effects drinking or drugging can have on a person AND their family.
Keep taking it "one day at a time" and congrats on winning the game of life for the last 25 years!!!!!!!
grats wagon. that's a long ass time. more years sober than I've been alive.
Twenty five years is a good chunk of your life...here's to the next 25! Congratulations! :)
Good luck!
congratulations wagon sir, that is a long time my friendQuote:

This song always seemed to truly touch on this subject: A Must Listen for all those who are suffering from this disease right now! http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqo0aVgKHRo
Congrats Wagon! I can only echo other people's posts, and agree that it's a great accomplishment. Here's to another 25 years and beyond!
"Anything, in moderation" tends to be my motto. It can be a slippery slope for some ... but weed and booze aren't any less inherently evil than any of the other substances on the planet. It's people's relationships with these things that end up so often being problematic. But that's a topic for a whole different thread, and probably a whole different site.
Keep taking care of yourself, Wagon. :)
its great ,,,,,all the things you want , you can do it in your life , if you have power mind ,,,,,,,,,,,,ty ,,,,
congrats and happy new year
that sux wagon. i know that in my older age i will be chiefin like no other to take away lil pains n stuff
Congrats! I think that is really cool and brave of you
Congrats and hope you have 25 more.
25 years of soberiity is a real feat... I have been a user for over 25 years. Yeah I had a few years clean but always one way or another forgot my purpose and relapsed. Good luck to you and your soberiity.
I'll drink to that.
Cheers to being clean. I've been clean all my life, 23 years and going
In my opinion everyone should take showers.
To each there own. But that's in particularly bad taste.Quote:

op i just read a few sentences, i stopped when you said the problem was. im telling you the problem is texas get out as soon as possible. go north east or west not sure if u should go south for more than a week or so. ( i hear the cartel is not so much the nice people)
but if u leave texas go to a state where, they dont think big hair fake everything the bush family knows all perhaps ur desire to drink andget high would subside.
