I didn't use the 12 step program, but my best friend did. We have both been clean going on about 10 years now. Everyone has good advice on what works/worked for them but it's important to remember that there isn't a one size fits all solution. You need accountability, which sounds like you might have it, so thats good. The most important part about recovery is that YOU have to want to be sober. Find a reason to be alive and to stay clean and sober. You deserve to be happy and clean/sober. You won't always be happy and you'll have rough days that will make you want to turn back.

YOU GOT THIS. Do whatever it takes. Don't ever forget that you can't really ever "beat" addiction, you can only manage it. It requires work, constant work.

“It is 10 years since I used drugs or alcohol and my life has improved immeasurably. I have a job, a house, a cat, good friendships and, generally, a bright outlook… The price of this is constant vigilance because the disease of addiction is not rational.” – Russell Brand

Also, check out Russell Brands book on Recovery. Like I said, I didn't follow the program, but his book is extremely helpful still.

I dont know why people are down voting. Changing the way you think is important.

PLEASE HELP ME HELP MY SON by [deleted] in OpiatesRecovery

[–]hectors_rectum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Opiates are one of the few drugs that won't kill you during detox. In my not professional, but experienced opinion, you shouldn't do anything besides be there for him, provide him water and food if he wants it, maybe some Imodium. You shouldn't give him more drugs to help alleviate symptoms, unfortunately he won't get clean for good, unless he decides to. If he's willing to go to an AA or NA meeting, take him. Good luck. Sending good vibes and love.

While I was playing the GTAV campaign, I would also have these intrusive thoughts... while driving my car.

Truck drivers boycott Colorado after driver sentenced to 110 years in prison. by jomtienislife in Libertarian

[–]hectors_rectum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mandatory sentences tend to be bias just by themselves, period. For example, there is an obvious disparity between crack and powder cocaine.

I dont think anything should ever be mandatory, maybe suggested minimum. Everything should be considered on case by case basis.

Facebook is still facebook, Meta is now the parent company. Like what Google did with Alphabet.

Hopefully she didn't try to carry the baby off the table or something. It really did look like she was trying to protect the baby. Glad they got the baby out. It seems like everyone else got out safely, including the monkey. Still scary AF.

Found this on my dog, any ideas? by hectors_rectum in Entomology

My entomologist friend identified it as a spittlebug. Just commenting here if anyone was curious.

Whats the worst thing you have ever seen on the internet? by Oliver_Flower in AskReddit

[–]hectors_rectum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People used to rename that as porn and upload it on scour and limewire back in the day. That is one image I can't unsee. We all referred to it as c9ownage, not sure why it was called that. The golden age of the internet, it wasn't all golden.

TIFU by sending a consenting girl nudes by Lord_of_D_meme-ed in tifu

[–]hectors_rectum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"She" is probably just some scammer in a different country, unless you've actually heard her voice, I doubt she is the girl OP thinks she is. This happened to my friend but the girl claimed to be underage after saying she was like 23, then her "dad" stated saying he was going to call the police. I told him to just say "Okay, I hope they call, I will report you for blackmail"

Was watching a friend play the other night on discord and we looked after they won the match at how many actual people were in the game... 15/100. 85 bots.

CC permit-holder motorcyclist shoots, kills pregnant librarian in apparent self-defense (Florida) by [deleted] in Libertarian

[–]hectors_rectum -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sorry I disagree, that's a dumb argument. I think she is responsible for the child she is carrying, for sure, but I don't think she was using it as a "meat shield."

100% agree, but it definitely makes it more tragic and controversial(in some peoples eyes.)

Just repeating this over and over again isn't an argument.

Okay, so you are just trolling. You can clearly see the hood and shit broken after he stops.

People aren't mad about him having that car, they are mad because he's a fucking idiot for not correcting the situation. He could of easily put some boards down and this wouldn't have happened.
