Subject: Daves Message

Dave has sent the following message to me for discussion. So let's get the discussion going!

Thank you for that ....
You would think after almost 18 years of AA, PDAP and two treatment centers, I would be further along in sobriety. I know how to get sober. but sometimes do not know how to stay sober. Cocaine and now Crack has been such an unfortunate issue in my life and only now do I see how it is holding me back. I just keep running from it..and that works for a while, then like the "devil" it is...it seems to creep into my life whereever there is a small crack in the armour.
Addiction is an awful disease...but I am grateful to have a "church type" group to go to. Some of the groups I have been to...were either the low bottom drunks and druggers..whereby, it became counter productive to go. I have even left meetings with a person I meet at a meeting and go get high. I am that easily persuaded to go the wrong way..and much of that comes from my "sexual addiction" as well. One addiction leads another. What a mess! But enough on the problem..I should live in the solution! I am lucky that I do have some spiritulality to hang on to. I wish I had a group of sober friends..but so many I know have done the ole "switch" ..they quit meth..but now drink alot..That was never my drug of choice as alcohol is so messy for me. It makes me sick! dw
