Can also confirm. Spent a lot of my 20s hooked on opiates. Nothing else did it for me. I was a functional user...but i got pretty deep and did some things i thought id never do. Almost died several times, family was broken...couldn't figure my shit out. I'm thankful those days are behind me, but oddly I don't know if I'd change a thing. It's given my current life a lot of perspective. Learned a lot of hard lessons...but its made me a more appreciative person in the long run. 2016 was my last bender. Now I'm engaged, I'm an uncle, and I have a solid career. There was a time I doubted I'd make it to 30....im glad I did.
