- Hi. My name is Alice and I'm an addict.
- Hi Alice.

My God, what a beautiful feeling.
I've been trapped by your judgment and your neglect of me, your silent unjustified scorn for so long now.
I've questioned everyone: my loved ones, my friends, those who just happened to be around, and of course, myself. Always myself.
Many times I've been trying to fool myself and self motivate, to become something less. Less than what I am and more of what I need to be.
Needed to be at the time. It got to the point where my actions became vindictive in a desperate attempt to stop the useless pondering
of the past and the overwhelming, constant flow of thoughts. That last feeling never changed. I still await vengeance and hope you are yet
somehow to experience the feeling that became a headline of my 2009.
All the negativity aside, though. I've been getting better with every other day for the past couple of months.
I am proud to say that I am asking for you less and less with each day. You are finally starting to leave my system and I mean, really leaving it.
There is no burning feeling in my veins anymore. No sudden breath shortages and no inexplicable temptations.

I am clean for one month now.
Thank you.

- Thanks for sharing, Alice.
