<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nMy name is Chris and I am an addict. If you or someone you know is currently finding themselves in the midst of a deathly drug or alcohol addiction, well then join the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is a very brief account of my life over the past 20 years. Yes, 20 years is how long I was entrapped by my disease. The drugs that eventually became my life were crack cocaine and heroin. I had (and truly believed) to use these drugs every single day to be able to survive, not live but survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The consequences of my drug usage for over the period of 20 years landed me in jail 10 times, on the streets more times that I can remember, hospital for 7 overdoses and rehabs 29 times. All of my friends from back then are all dead and a girlfriend I had whilst in addiction that used to use with me is also dead, she died in bed next to me. I had passed out , and whilst passed out this young lady carried on using and subsequently overdosed, leaving me to wake up or rather come too , with the sight of my stone dead girlfriend laying right next to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NOW, I am blessed , with many years clean, sober and living a completely different life, a life engulfed with principles and values, which brought me the gift of peace and happiness , which for 36 years I had never experienced. Because of this that I am writing, shouting and screaming out to all you addicts, families, friends and associates of addicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the assistance and guidance of a drug & alcohol therapist that showed me a whole new way of life, a unique approach which I embraced to live a life of principles and values. It would be impossible to return to my addiction as using drugs and principles and values do not align. It was simple<\/strong>, live with my new found principles and values and my using days were over. For 11 years now it has proved to be the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I did make use of the Naltrexone implant in my first 3 months, it aided me by giving me the strength to change my life. It is a recovery aid not an alternative to recovery itself. Recovery must be viewed as a lifelong journey. Naltrexone does make it easier to take that first step in putting the drugs down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I did put the Naltrexone to the test to see if what they were saying about it was in fact true. I can absolutely truly say that it did nothing to me, it was as if I smoked a normal cigarette. No affect what so ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I now assist addicts in changing their lives, instead of ruining my own and my loved ones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi Everyone My name is Chris and I am an addict.
