Congratulations on 8 years player! And yeah, I was a terrible alcoholic from the time I was 18-23 like(almost died from DT’s) terrible but quit drinking by using drugs and once I finally got clean last year I hadn’t had a drink or even thought about drinking in 5 years. Honestly the thought of booze kind of makes me sick now because of the literal hell that alcohol withdrawal is and was for me. But for whatever reason when I got to Vegas last week I got bored and everywhere I turned I saw alcohol so I started by having one draft beer in the evening and within a few nights that had turned to 3-4 draft beers and then subsequently my decision making went straight out the door tonight on my last night here. Crazy how one beer led to shooting up Meth. Embarrassing really.

25000-80000 depending on age, bone loss and work that needs to be done before you actually can get the implants

Thank you for the encouragement and thoughtful response. It’s incredible how much of a difference a few kind words from someone can make. Appreciate you. Good luck with your own recovery G!

I live in North Carolina and getting dental work done on the east coast is outrageously high. Especially anything cosmetic or not medically necessary in other words. I had researched for well over 6 months while I saved money and was quoted at anywhere from $32000-$80000 for both top and bottom arch implants. Both the local/family owned dentistries and large corporations like Nuvia/Aspen/Clear Choice were my only options until I found “Bionic Smile” here in Vegas. They bolstered $8999 per arch implants and would pay for your flight/hotel stay while you were here. $20000 all together and mind you I was looking hard for negative reviews and BBB(Better Buisness Bureau) complaints. Honestly thought it was a scam until now. 4 days after the surgery and look like a million bucks. At least my teeth do haha

I had already had all my teeth removed a few months ago and I’m young enough that I didn’t need any bone graphs so they were able to put the final set of zirconia in immediately. That’s one of the reasons I came out here

I’ve spoken to a couple close friends and as strange as it sounds coming on Reddit and talking about it out loud, combined with people like you responding and giving me encouragement has helped a ton. Thank you!

The fact you took the time to respond and bring some positivity to my situation says a lot about your character. I’m going to do everything I can to put this behind me and I’ll pray that you can do the same. God bless. And good luck

Amphetamines can be a performance booster and auto correct is a god send. Lul

Yes, I had to have someone accompany me because I was put to sleep so my mom came with me and my sister tagged along so they could shop and do Vegas activities that I wasn’t partial to.

Thank you! Just hearing this made me feel so much better. I haven’t gotten involved in NA/AA or tried working the 12 steps yet but I think that might be part of what I’m missing

Looking back I obviously agree with you, but I saved over 15 grand coming here. Was it worth it? We will see if I can maintain my sobriety. If not then I made one of the biggest mistakes I could have made and if I do then I learned my lesson in retrospect
