Sorry, I didnt see that question...
Yes. I got addicted to drugs 16 1/2 years ago and I've been drug free for 15 years now, but I still have regrets from that time because it made me out to be an idiot and I hurt myself, my family, my friends and the people around me.
I also lost my credibilty, my job, my credit rating, my repuation. I ve worked hard to earn it all back since then.
I also serve as a counselor - I go to schools and tell them what it was like being on drugs, being homeless, being dependent on other people and having no life but the drug itself. I also listen to people that are going through recovery programs and AA/NA.
