LOST IN SPACE...DANGER WILL ROBINSON!
I moved out of the homeless shelter the first of August.  I shared a place with a guy who wanted to start a computer business.  A good friend of mine came over and we had an alcoholic brain housewarming party.  That means we got flaming drunk.  That started a chain of events that boggle my mind.  I hadn't put a needle in my arm since 1979.  I had heard so much about methamphetamine, I had to get some and try it.  Two days after I got drunk, I was injecting crystal meth.   There must have been something attractive to me about shooting up in the bathroom, then once I was able to stand up I would run out of there through the living room to the balcony, blind, sweat flying, with an erection a horse would envy, close to orgasm, then I would yell for someone to bring me a wet towel.  I would be burning up, my heart was outta control, and my vision was shot...But damn it all, felt so good.  I did this behavior for the following three days.  Then I had a moment of clarity, and stopped.  I finally fell asleep on day five.  The month of September, I did drink several times with an old girlfriend of mine.  She came over and asked me what I wanted to do, so I said, get drunk and screw.  So we did.  That is a great country western song.  Anyway, I got back to the program of AA about a month ago.  I don't know how I managed to get back.  I got lucky I suppose.  I sometimes think I am not capable of being honest with myself.  Am I one of those unfortunates?  This tells me that I am powerless.  This is a very true reality for me...This is where I am today.  Just not drinking or using...I don't know what else to do at this point.  I am scared shitless...
