Just went through my FB, really hardly ever use it and I see why. I started going through pictures and a mixture of embarrassing and fucked up out of my mind and really sad that kept coming to the forefront of my mind when seeing them. Grateful to be where I’m at today.
So here’s 2, both in mid 2016, heavy active addiction of oxy and heroin. A few months before everything came crashing down with my legal troubles me. My brothers graduation, embarrassing. My good friends wedding, fucked up out of my mind. How sad. Two great times I ruined with my drug use.
145lbs

This is about 70-72 days clean 185lbs.

If this isn’t a reminder to stay sober and why it’s changed my life… Sad but humbled.

Thanks @Joyce19. I have dropped a few pounds and I’m not faking a smile (as much) these days. Contacts help too maybe?

Can’t get rid of a good ball cap. I wear them until they start to unravel. Then it’s time to retire it.

I’ve never looked good in a ball cap which is a shame because they are a cool accessory :grin::joy:
