I have several monkeys on my back. They bring me great joy and terrible sorrow. With the power comes the responsibility.

Unchecked addictions will destroy you. The fine line is the path I've chosen. I'm okay with that.

That bit about addictions seems to be a common thing among other people I've asked this question. Is the "fine line" you talk about the line between use and addiction?

Sometimes I push it too far. When I find myself using just to fight withdrawal I know it's time to take a break. This is easier said then done. Withdrawal is a hell I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

The sad thing is you have to experience your limits to know what they are. Many people (myself included) really screw themselves up and some don't make it back at all.

I don't think drugs and alcohol are cool. I just don't know many other ways to bring peace to mind and soul.
