Dammit! You're right, there was definitely a hemorrhoids joke there . . . isn't it always the way that you never get the idea until way too late!
Yeah don't give me too much applause - I will still have an occasional pipe of crack, maybe once every couple of months. Because I fuckin like it and that's that. I'm getting too old for that shit though -my smart watch gives me an unusual heartbeat warning when I do stimulants. I also still drink too much, I still smoke cigarettes and the occasional joint, I still have a shitty diet. These are things I need to change. But yeah, I don't do smack anymore. It was part of my life for many wasted years. It took me way too long to finally quit. But I did it. . . and so can you. Probably better than me. The rest of my stuff is a work in progress - though I am finding I feel better the next day if I go to sleep sober.
I don't wanna give you advice because we all different people with different shit. What worked for me might not be right for you. And I'm no fuckin guru! I'd just say pick a date and stick to it. Don't beat yourself up about relapses, just get back on that wagon and keep going. And get whatever medical and social support you can. All the best mate
