Homeless to happy

Created by

Homeless to happy

My name is Amanda. I'm now thirty-seven and I've been sober now for nine years. I was homeless and addicted to many drugs. It started with cocaine and then crack, to heroine and finally crystal-meth. I came from a great family so, really there was no reason for this, right? I couldn't stop. I did everything and anything to get that next fix. I stopped because, I didn't want to live like that anymore. You have to know there is a better place for you. I'm now married with kids. The most important thing is i'm happy. You can be happy too. Believe in you.

amanda, you touched my heart cause i am a 33 and i grew up with a wonderful family and was a happy go lucky girl with goals and dreams. At 25 i tried cocaine and oxys and by 26 i was shooting heroin daily. i was clean on and off after 12 inpatient rehabs until last year i found meth. it took me lower than i knew was possible. i never got into legal trouble but last june i had a breakdown and knew i had to change my life or dig my grave. i have been clean for 10 months...i feel like for the first time since i put that first line up my nose that i am worthy of a life full of laughter and love. Hope is a beautiful thing.
