my name is Garvin. I am pretty down to earth on my right mind. I enjoy watching sports and listening to the music. I love good lyrics when it comes to music. I have drugs and alcohol problem. I have been battling those two for a few years.
Before my addiction I was great at school. I used to get good grades even in college. I used to enjoy life. If I can take back that day I started using drugs and make it never happen, I would have done it quickly. I used to have some good friends before hanging out with the wrong crowd. My family used to warn me, but I didn't listen.. fast life happened fast!
My life now is all about the next fix. I would do anything to get it. I have been to rehad, groups, you name it. Deep inside I really wanna quit this situation I am in. But find myself getting back doing the same thing. It is like a magnet pulling me back. I have been in and out of prison. It's like I sit down and watch my life passing by.
I start to realize that what causes me to still struggling with this addiction is the people around me. The good people I know, great colleagues, stay away from me because of my addiction. Most people I know are dealing with the same issues I am dealing with. It's like a black hole sucking me in.
My goal is to be clean and sober. I lost everything. I had a great job after college and a great life. I won't give up. I am going to still fighting this. I hope my family could understand.
