Summary

Have you ever wondered what it might be like to be an addict? Do you know someone that is an addict and can not fathom how they got to that point in their lives?

Addicts are not always hooked at their first taste of drugs. Not all drugs effect everyone in the same way. One person may take one sip of alcohol and never put the bottle down for decades. Conversely someone may try crack, heroine, or crystal meth, which are far more addictive, and not get hooked at all.

Each person’s body and chemical makeup is different from each other. We all have different vices depending on our personality types, genetic predisposition, stress and hormone levels, and what mental state of mind we are in.

This audiobook will reveal my personal story and my addictions as I battled with depression, drugs, and struggled to find meaning and direction in my life. I will tell my story to the road to recovery and the three principals that I applied to life to get me there.

Many people do not know whether they have an addiction problem until it is too late. Many people believe that it is a choice. We do not choose to be or become an addict. If I was given a choice before I tried drugs, then I would have chosen another route.

My Story

I can pinpoint the exact day that everything went wrong. It did not happen overnight like some may think. I was in control, at least that’s what I told myself. I thought I could do drugs when I wanted to and remain in control; however, that is not how it works.

My addiction started on prom night. I was the Captain of the Wrestling team, Honors Society, track team, baseball team, Yearbook Sports Editor, Umpired Baseball, and found time for community service hours as well. One could say I should have known better, and at one point I did.

So, you may ask, what went wrong? For me it was being let down by my long-time friend and prom date. She stood me up at prom to go and do some MDMA. My prom date left five minutes after we showed up and then took the limo and left me alone. I took it personally. I told myself that...
