Firstly, a really big well done for getting clean. That is no mean feat.
The last two lines of your comment really rung true. I lost a dear friend a few years ago, in relation to a serious heroin addiction (it wasn't actually an overdose that killed him, but a cheap, adulterated bad 'dose').
I watched a confident person struggle to emerge, only to recede every time lift dealt a blow, and end up trying to find things to remove the pain he felt in life.
I am glad that his story actually helped stop one more life being lost - I worked with someone who though life was all about experiences, after blissful weed, there was the high of cocaine, and finally he considered opiates. A trip to the grave, to the family left behind, to the doctors who actually tried to save my friend's life, worked. Sobered him up, so to speak.
