We who took drugs are witnesses of the condition we got into. We can’t handle life, people, or reality. Day by day, we entered darker days, away from people, and closed our eyes when the difficulties were in front of us.

I had been looking for help but wanted to find it in a place away from real life. I didn’t consider any tips from anyone because I thought I was doing the right thing. But no, I was not listening to anyone, and I hated everything.

As a person, I am very easygoing and can get along with everyone, but this condition in life wasn’t helping me because every comment I heard made me sad, destroyed me, and made me not listen to reason. One bad word and I was furious and full of anger.

“I’m winning every day, and I’m sure my life will be very beautiful to enjoy with the skills I’m getting here, so nothing will destroy my happiness anymore!”

I did one of the most important things in life. I learned how to ignore what others say and feel empathy for the person you are talking to. I have reached a condition where no words can destroy or distract me because I am concentrating on what I’m doing, with good intentions always looking forward to everything. I’m very happy to have reached this condition because I know I’m being prepared for the difficulties of life and what is coming ahead. I’m winning every day, and I’m sure my life will be very beautiful to enjoy with the skills I’m getting here, so nothing will destroy my happiness anymore!!
