Hi guys, thought it was time for my annual post! Hope that my old friends who saw me through so many years of dark times are keeping their heads above water and still kicking that bastards arse. Me, no surprises, still squeaky clean. Check this! I even quit smoking in 2013! And now it's January I've quit eating as well - got fat as f*** over Xmas, now I'm working the lard off my arse.
Sooooooo... what happening in the life of Diff??? My eldest daughter is now 6, and my little lad is 4, both at school and doing well. I'm looking forward to a good year - spent most of last summer converting a campervan, and she's looking the dog bollocks now, all ready for the festivals this summer (if we get one).
I started college again in September, and I'm training to be an holistic therapist. I'm loving the course, and doing really well. I've rediscovered my swotty side! I've got a new puppy, called Moss, and he's a little bundle of squidgy chocolate gorgeousness.
Yup, life is pretty good.
Anyways, hope that life is kind to you all, and 2014 brings you happiness.
If anybody is wondering who I am, look back through the archives. I starting posting here over 10 yrs ago, and was the saddest, most desperate junkie on the planet. Now I've been clean since 2005, and life is just peachy (and even when it isn't, my worst day clean is still heaps better than my best day as a junkie).
Well, that's all folks!
Happy 2014!

College has credits in holistic therapy? You better make sure your getting a degree and not some certification.
Yup, they sure do. I shall be a fully qualified aromatherapist, reflexologist and body massage therapist, as employed by thousands of salons, gyms, and health centres across the world, you darn sceptic, you! And as for the degree, already got one, from a good old fashioned red brick English University, in dry old History and International Politics, so don't worry about me on that score. LOL! I post on a board all about heroin addiction about my career goals, and I get sceptical advise. Stick to what you're good at my dear, as shall I. So long...

Congrats to you Diff!!
We need folks like you to stay connected here so newcomers can see the results of our struggles whether they are great, as in your case or not so good in some others. They need to see that others are going through the same things they are and that addiction can be beaten ..if you want it bad enough.
Beating heroin addiction or any opiate addiction is challenging for sure and I am so glad so many have found this site!!
Keep coming back!
