I love this stories. It remind us the strength that is in all humans. Sometimes it is hard to remember that there it is. Inside of all of us. But it it great when we find it. I recently quit smoking (regular cigarettes), and even though is NOT the same kind of addiction, it was hard. This is my 3rd time and I know this is going to be the last one. We all have that strength. And it is amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Addiction is addiction and so many times it can be the hardest thing we as humans ever overcome. Addiction comes in so many forms and we can be addicted to so many things! I want to say congrats on kicking the smoking habit for good! That is no small achievement!

Thank you for sharing your story, Yoko. I started using at a young age, too. I had trouble finding my 'place' at meetings because so many were older than me, and thought that I wasn't 'really' an addict because of my age. But, we both know that addiction and the suffering that goes along with it don't care how old you are. To addiction, fifteen is the same as fifty. Congratulations on your year. It only gets easier from here. You must always remember that pain, though, never let it escape you. Complacency is dangerous for an addict.

I'm really impressed with the way you tried to kick the habit. Although I have not tried it before, the consequences are enough to put me off.
Quitting a bad addiction is all about will power. And the realisation that God is around to help you out of the shit. All it takes is the first step. All the best to you!
