Robbo WUntitled
Hey guys, my name is rob, im 25 yrs old and have been smoking weed, taking M.D.M.A, ketamine, cocaine, speed to name a few for the last ten years. Mainly on a weekend, but now and again on a random week night, literally for no reason sometimes, i didnt even want to get off my face but did for the sake of it! With the weed, i pretty much smoked all day every day!
I always thought i was the sort of person that could handle it as id done it for so long without any problems.. but due to the fact my head was in another world, i failed to realise that i was massively upsetting my family, changing from a lovely friendly guy, to an absolute selfish prick.
ive hurt a lot of people in my time, mainly the people that care about me the most i.e my mum, grandparents etc. i was so into this world i couldnt see what i had become. Like many of you guys, i have tried to give up many many times, and failed because i thought i was strong enough to go out with the same mates to the same parties and NOT TAKE DRUGS!!! Sorry guys, but theres not many people that can do it.
Its taken me ten years and hundereds of shit depressed days to realise i cant give up unless i get away from the scene completely. I am a dj, I love dance music, but i have had to sell my decks, stop going to raves, delete all the numbers off my fone that can get me drugs, and unfortunately say goodbye to some of my best mates. Its the hardest thing ive EVER had to do.
After giving it all up, (and believe me im still in my early days too and could easily relapse!) I feel free, alive, focused, exited about the future that i can now have without drugs. I feel like my adult life (tho im 25) has started for real now!
I hope this might help some of you, and if anybody wants to talk to me, add me on facebook (robbo w) and i will be more than happy to chat! BELIEVE ME IF I CAN DO IT, THEN SO CAN YOU, BE STRONG!!! 8 months ago
