Time was running out. I had to make a decision. I had to decide whether or not I wanted to go get high or stay sober. It used to be difficult, now I don't have to think about it.

You know everyday Mary, I find it easier to stay away everyday I'm around it I see it in people, if you want to be sober then be sober but you will always have the choice or if you decide to get high then you also face the consequences of being in poverty or even homeless and being powerless over it. Me I gave it all up at first I faced the urge to go do it again but my will power and my mind is we're so much stronger, I was able to. The longer your sober then I know it will get so much easier.
Sobriety is one thing I always struggle with. I fill like I want to be numb and hurt less but then, just as it does to you, the choice to stay sober leads me back to a better place. Does it hurt less to use or does it just harm?
You will know that later in life you will feel better if you stay sober and finish high school because you pretty much can not do anything with out a diploma in life and you will want your body to stay clean from drugs or drinking thats what I have learned.
Ya that's so true because I've been 13 weeks clean today. It's feels amazing but then again I want and sometimes even feel like I need to have that falling because I get depressed. When I would get depressed before I would go and get high. Now I know that I don't need to.
I really like this post Mary! I understand how you feel 100%. With my life, I just want to be high and just say screw everything. Then I ask myself what getting high will do for me? Usually the only answer that I can give is fake happiness. Think about it, all you really get is like a hour of feel good. But if you actually work through your problems and face them without the influence of drugs, you can claim true happiness. Keep moving forward!
Mary this is a great memoir! I can relate to this because I would always have to think about it either get high and get caught or find a way to get clean quick or not use at all. Now I don't even think about it.I just focus on school and what i need to work on. so i can become successful in life and show everybody around me that I can become someone in life. Good job Mary keep up the good work you can do it.
Thanks guys! And Daniel it is so much easier to stay clean then to have to clean out your system. And Noah I am always moving forward. You gotta keep your head up to.
