Thank you for your honesty. I need a constant reminder that this disease is a sneaky f**ker. I can’t remember the last time I had a craving but I know I can never forget I’m not immune. Glad you came here to share and it’s comforting to know your committed to not using.

Thank you so much Chad for your post and your vulnerability. Congrats on your 5 years - it really is so baffling that our addictions will be with us for life. We forever have to be in the present mind and live day to day ODAAT.

Thank you and yes the choice is in our hands. Again - just appreciate your words
