How long have you been clean with these drugs?

A few years now.
I hope I can reach @77nick77 ’ s and @shutterbug ’ s levels of abstinence, as I know they both smoked pot and drank booze when they were kids …

28 years clean and sober from booze, drugs, and tobacco.
I’m part of an AA group for those with MI. We have over 130 members right now and it skews heavily towards bipolar, but those with SZ or SZA are most welcome. It’s understood that most members have some sort of anxiety disorder so we try to be less harsh and more welcoming than your standard bunch of AAs. PM me if interested.

Nice, okay.
I still have a bit of Amyloban left, though I’m a bit hesitant to use it (for whatever reasons).
I’m on a low dose Cipralex @ 5mg, No APs, Vitamin C @ 3000mg a day, caffeine every now and then, Vitamin B6 every now and then.
Fixed up my diet, not eating as much, but taking lots of protein through powder and eggs.
I seem to be doing alright, Vitamin C and caffeine seems to fair well for me.
A 28 year old kid.

Though I did spot alcohol in the ingredients of my suishi on occasion. But from today I won’t even touch small amounts as such.
Can I have some ?

I’ve been 5 years clean from marihuana.
Those pro-cannabis folks who claim you can’t get addicted need to get their heads removed from their arses.
ANYTHING is addictive if you use it enough.
And the month of detoxing I went through wasn’t all in my head. I was shaking, throwing up, sleeping poorly and having nightmares when I finally did sleep, getting sad for no reason, getting angry for no reason, dissociating, and having panic attacks. Everything hurt.
I made a promise to myself to never ever put myself through that again. I know if I have one toke I have to start all over. And I’ve kept that promise. After the first year of being clean, I bought myself a tattoo. It’s poorly done, but it’s a reminder of what I went through and I love it.
When things get tough, I look at it and remember how proud I was when I’d finally gone a whole year without smoking up.
I also abused alcohol. Not enough to be an alcoholic, but there was definitely misuse.
Now I rarely drink. I maybe have a beer or a glass of wine every 3 months or so. Can’t even remember the last time I got drunk, and my alcohol mentality has shifted also. I no longer drink to get drunk, I just have a sip to enjoy the sip.
