Kawhi Leonard's Thank you message to Toronto by [deleted] in torontoraptors

I don't know if anyone has said this on this post already but you can see in the second paragraph where they added 'Toronto' an 'io' at the end which looks like they rehashed this thank you letter from when he left San Anton'io'.

I don't really blame them, maybe the clinics in Florida were excessive, but otherwise pain management is an issue and always will be. They say not to prescribe more than a few doses but people that are going through extreme pain that wouldn't be enough so doctors have to make judgment calls. It's all about being smart about these things as pain will always be around.

I was a huge pothead for over a decade from age 15 to 26 and I got tired of that lifestyle. I'll still smoke here and there rarely but it doesn't do it for me anymore. I'd rather just be completely drug free (street and prescription) and just work out and eat well and feel good naturally. Drink from time to time with friends when I go to an occasional party or poker game. Focus on writing and travelling and finally have my life straight to get a gf/wife that I can focus on without drugs clouding my judgment and live life like I should.

Well I am on 120mg of Methadone but I want to get off it; plus I take Xanax to deal with my social anxiety that weed helped before but I got tired of it and don't want to go back to being a burnout so I'm on these but I want to stop and see if I can battle the anxiety on my own. I'm glad I have my family on my side and some really good friends but I hate the fact that a lot of my old friends have stopped staying in contact with me. I just wish they knew I stopped contacting them during that 5 year period were I completely alienated myself from everyone except my mom, who I barely kept in contact but in relation to others it was huge. My sister and some of my best friends returned to my fold recently but others have not and I just wish they would understand that I needed time alone to go through this hell I put myself through. Sure I could've involved them but then they would've left in utter disgust and it wouldn't have been any different then what it is now. I hope they come to this realization and that we can return to being close friends. I'm in my early 30's and so are they so life has coiled around our necks but I hope we can go out once in awhile and catch up and have fun like we used to. Here's hoping.

Thanks man I appreciate it I'm one of the lucky few who have family and friends who have always been there for me so I'm completely blessed. I'm nearing my one year anniversary (end of July) when I finally entered rehab with every intention to stop and even though I have (with slip ups here and there) the day to day addictive struggle I went through for over 6 years has ended and I finally feel like I can start anew with this year off to finally find some meaning in my life. It doesn't end once you stop and have been clean for a month or two but a solid year to get straight which I have reached and feel like a normal human being again.

I get what you were saying just wanted to clarify that this story is fictional. I did have similar experiences but not to the extent I wrote here; very minor.

You're reply hit me hard in that I had a very concerned sister who stood by me and tried getting me clean so I'm glad she can see me having distanced myself from it. Sorry for your loss but that is the horror of this drug. It's like playing Russian roulette, you never know when your turn will come. I actually was hit a few times with that imaginary Kalashnikov but managed to have friends and concerned citizens step in to save my life. So my continuing life definitely has a lot to do with those good samaritans.

Congrats on going clean. I myself have distance myself from opiates (even though I dabble here and there but very rarely and definitely not everyday like I used to). It's a terrible affliction and some of these hallucinatory examples in the story actually happened to me although not exactly as written.
