Oh boy have I. My downfall was alcohol. Especially when I lost my mate of 13 yrs. I just totally lost it. Didn't care if I lived or died. My son was messed up to because that was the only father he ever knew. Between the 2 of us I was the worst. His friends would come over and I'd get drunk as all he**. They provided the alcohol and I drank til I passed out and couldn't remember what I did or said.@ yrs. after I lost my mate is when I got involved with my husband of today. He was a god send for me. He saw the potential of a good person under it all and stuck by me through thick and thin. I quit drinking about 7 mo. after I met him and now I have an occasional drink at a special party (wedding, Christmas party) like that. It's weird because now the smell of alcohol actually gets me sick. If we eat out we won't go to a bar-restaurant so the smell doesn't get to me. If it weren't for him I know I would have wound up in the hospital physic ward or dead by now. So yea, very self destructive course I was able to pull away from with the help of loved ones.

No I haven't, I am too scared to take drugs and Don't drink now as I have 2 small children. I'm only 23, I feel as though my life is too short and valuable for that, I want to enjoy every second and breath life in, not forget what the hell I am doing and have groggy memories.

yes defenitely...growing up at the age of 13 i spend most of my life in and out of psychiatric hospital for suicidal attempts..self mutilation..and drug/ alcohol abuse..I see now it got me no where..but at the time it was the only way i knew how to deal with the sh!t that was going on in my life..being sexually abused from the age of 5 till 14..raped again twice by a neighbor..losing my best friend..and god father due to suicide..my family being tore apart because of things i had done..being constantly mentally..physically and emotionally abused..not to mention verbally as well..it was crazy..and my life was headed in a down ward spiral..luckily i've gotten the help i've needed over the years..and see life in a whole new perspective..i am living proof that what doesn't kill you..only makes you stronger..other wise i wouldn't be here today.

The past 7 months have been some of the most carnal of my life.
Everything was just going really well and then I just fell off the wagon of life. I just don't know how to get back on.

Yes, let me tell you though Jesus shure didn't let it last long. He woke me up big time with a bad trip. I am very thankful though. Because with out Him saving me, I really dont even want to think where I would be right now.

Oh yes I have. It was a bumpy path that was hard to get off of, but I made it. I disassociated myself with those who were on it with me and never looked back.
