After experiencing the lowest of lows, I was checked into a rehabilitation center in early June to treat my cocaine addiction. I did thirty days, starting with rapid detox and ending with plenty of therapy. They labeled me cured and sent me on my way.
Is that really how it works? I'm cured now?
So I don't think about it every day anymore. Nope, I sure don't.
And I don't miss my friends that still do it. No, not at all.
And I love being sober and actually having to deal with my emotions.
Thirty day programs aren't curing anyone.
Thirty day programs are like teaching a child to spell half it's name.
I'm so confused and worried all the time.
I'm also very lonely. I don't know how to make new friends.
On a lighter note, I'm going to be working my first tax-free weekend sober. I'm not looking forward to it. I'm actually going to have to deal with the stress and demand of the shoppers.
If I can get through today and tomorrow with a strong head, I can definitely make the rest of the season. And life is all down-hill from there.
