Joining us today on our #RecoveryTalks chat is Jay, a very grateful member of #CaScotland
He joined #CocaineAnonymous at the age of 21 years old and is honoured to say he is free from the shackles of mind and mood altering substances and has 13 months sobriety through continued work of the 12 step programme.
Jay, says:
"I am a recovering drug addict. After a traumatic experience in my life, I turned to 7 years of addiction. Although for the first 4-5 years of drug use I wasn't aware of my problem, it became apparent in my final years of drug use, as I was being totally dictated to by cocaine, which took me to some very dark places, as well as my life becoming very unmanageable. After making the decision to end it all as I couldn't go on living this way anymore, divine intervention as I see it today stopped me from taking my own life that night, and it prompted me to go and seek some help for my issue with cocaine, which led me to the doors of Cocaine Anonymous #Scotland. Since that day I have not looked back and I am so so grateful to be able to share my story on this platform and to hopefully let others know that they are not alone in this. After years of thinking I was the only person who was going through this, after speaking out about my issues (my saving grace) , it turned out there was a beautiful fellowship consisting of thousands of people who had gone through the same pain and unmanageable lifestyles, although we have many different stories we all come together under one roof to share the same solution. Ca is proven to have worked for many people!
