Answers:
Dude i have the same problem. I think of how all my freinds and high school graduates are great with kids and houses and feel like i will never catch up. I am 30 and was high for 10 years. The only thing i have been able to tell myself is try. Make yourself as happy as you can be. Save money and if you have good credit buy a house. Get a motorcycle of something like that. Then go out and buy some nice clothes and get your self confidence up. Then meet a girl and take it from there. I have found that things in life come quick if you work hard. I have just started recovering and i can see that i can change and be happy. It doesn't matter what you have as long as you are healthy and happy. I really feel ya brother we have the same problem. Keep in touch and let me know how you make out. God BlessHealth Question & Answer

who cares about everyone else! live by your own targets and be responsible for your own happiness, of course dont rule out other peoples help and support.
After seven years of relying on synthetic methods of happiness and starting afresh may seem daunting but you can do it if you want.
good luck and may you have a happier life from now on.
also sharing your experiences with others who were in a similar position as your self will benefit you greatly not to mention others.Health Question & Answer

Hit reset and then you will find the folk that love you will be delighted to have you back in the land of the living..and for a while you will be really cross with yourself for wasting so much time.But put those thoughts behind you and begin your future...
You can re-build your life.. and you have made the first step by coming on here and putting this question.

Tell yourself that your life begins now,leave behind the regrets(that will hold you back)

Turn your face to the sun and the shadows will fall behind you.

You have to make the people who suffered see that you have changed, and for the better. Everything wont go back to normal though because there's always going to be that trigger that can make your life fall back into the hands of the alcohol and drugs again. Show that your reponsible by going to college and developing skills for a job.

I would want to do whatever i could to show the people i loved that im taking life seriously.

If you make a clean break with the people & places that messed you up, then yes. I recall another question - someone said it was like "restoring the factory settings" on their lives - you're hitting "reset" - another one would be "system restore" - your system needs to be restored so it doesn't have drink & drugs in it, & you need to make a break from all things associated with it.Health Question & Answer

Take one day at a time. Making a list of small goals and long-term goals is very helpful. It gives you perspective on what to aim for. Goals can be anything, like paying your bills on time, saying no to associating with people from your troubled past, finding a support group, going to church to bigger goals like reconciling with family members you may have lost touch with during your problem or buying a house or car. I do recommend finding a good support group; it feels so good to talk to people who understand what you are going thru and know that other people are dealing with similar issues to you. By the way, I recommend the Celebrate Recovery program, I don't know if there's one in your area, but you can check out some of their info online. Good luck!Health Question & Answer

Yes, new day - new beginning. Do everything one thing at the time, start with what you think is more important job, education or family/friends.

Remember to keep your self busy, the busier you are and the more projects you have the more distracted your mind will be and the better you will get with time.Health Question & Answer

Start from scratch!

Build confidence and meet people by joining clubs...perhaps go to night school to learn about something you're interested in.

Get a job...even if it's only part time it gets you out of the house and helps you to widen your social circle...also gives you money to play with.

Think about somewhere you'd really like to visit and take not having any ties (family or career) as an opportunity to travel there...saving up for it will gve you something to work towards...

If this question is about you personally then don't give up and well done! I had a friend in exactly the same position, that was a year ago and she's doing great now!Health Question & Answer

Ever heard the expression "better late than never".? Well,even if you didn't have those problems, a person has to make life for themselves. It does not come to you and it doesn't come easy for many. Write down goals that you wish to accomplish and then you take it one step at a time.Health Question & Answer
