| | WOW Turbo Time, That is really something to be proud of. You seem to have made it through this very tuff battle, and that is nothing shy of a miracle. It hepls everyone to hear stories like this. Recovery is a sacred part of our lives, and we can't afford to lose it.
Remember that detox from all the drugs we have put in our body, mind, and spirit can take a long time, so take it slow and keep doing what you know is the right thing. Proud of you. |

| | Winning the Battle and the War ! Chris, that is very good news.  I am also impressed with the way you handled this so far. Keep up the awesome job you are doing. Not many people have started a thread and had this much success in the same month, it is still October. Glad to see you back and hope you become part of our little family forever. When we help others, we also help ourselves stay on track. It works for me and I am sure it works for others.
Stay strong and positive ! You are a winner !!!

| | Hey Man,
Just wanted to say great job. I get pretty self-absorbed in my own world and struggles and it's easy to miss folks. You obviously handled this, that is an achievement you will never forget.
God, I know how hard it can be to kick. Lonely, too. Good for you, keep on keepin; on, sorry I've missed you up to this point. I try to pay attention, but as any of us hardcore folks know, it's easy to get wrapped up in your own mess.
Even though I am a complete stranger, I am very proud of you, for what that's worth.
Every Day You Wake Up Is The Rest Of Your Life.

| | in my previous attempts at staying clean (note the staying !! i have got there before but staying there is the hard part for me)
but for me the emotions were hard, we have suppressed them for so long with drugs that they come back and give us a bit of a rollercoaster to start with.
i was up and down, crying for no reason, but starting to laugh again as well, really laugh.
but hey, at least you are feeling ay, instead of dulling everything.
you have a great attitude, if your emotions get the better of you, get on here and let it all out.
bet your dog knows as well, that goes without saying to dog people but they will know how hard you have worked. give turbo a pat for me.
cheeky
p.s i called you triple t, on a post the other day, my bad. got myself a bit confused with you, and turbo. and triple t dogs. im on to it now. whooopz.

Give Turbo a hug for me. You are doing really great. Don't give to much credit to us, here, on this forum. YOU are the one who made the choice to change and did the hard work. You have impressed me from day 1. I am so proud of you. Keep it up. |

| | Chris,
Sounds like things are rolling along for you. That is awesome. My brother in law used to race motorcycles. He did the desert racing stuff, Baja 1000 etc. He won everything, all the time. Wish he had done supercross! That just blew up. He would be rich right about now, lol. Kiss for Turbo. I'm off to Virgina at 6am to run a golf tournament for work. Will have my computer. Take care. |
