A newfound, sober life
With the terror of drug addiction ravaging Washington County and many other counties in the region, I feel it is my duty as a recovering drug addict to spread the hope of my newfound sober life.
Just seven short months ago, I was in the grips of addiction. With the hopelessness that many addicts feel, death became a more attractive option than a life of addiction. But by the grace of God, my supportive girlfriend (at the time), and a loving family, I was able to enter a rehab facility. The 30 days I spent there changed my life dramatically.
As many people know, our lives are full of ups and downs. Without the use of drugs, my life is extremely better. I hope that people who suffer from this disease will find help.
