Being clean for almost 27 yrs —- I was one of the worse type —- I made plenty money— Drank / Smoked / Snorted anything I could get my hands on— That Glass Pipe got a hold of me so bad I had to change or Else—— My only advise I give people is to not convince yourself you can be a rational user —- Just don’t Drink — Just don’t Smoke — Go buy stuff you don’t need LOL —- Lights
Here is to another 10 clean and healthy yeaars! oops.
Celebrate! Have a root beer float!
In our metro area, there is a vape shop called… and I kid you not… “YOU SUCK VAPES.” I don’t know how they stay in business.
I do like root beer when I'm avoiding caffeine.
(Otherwise I prefer Dr. Pepper or Mountain Dew.)
Deluminator Addict,
FIRST I wanna say “NICE” RACOON CITY and Congrates. A decade clean and sober is an accomplishment that a good chunk of people never make to. I’m definitely glad that you found yourself before you completely lost yourself!
Being an NA member myself. I can truly appreciate you sharing this part of yourself. And in no way trying to steal your thunder! I just wanted to identify that you’re not alone on this platform.
Sometimes I wonder if I’ve traded one obsession for another with flashlights.
Sorry, I shouldn't have done that on your thread. I was in a mood this morning. Want me to delete/edit? I have no problem doing it.
congrats again!
Yes maybe — But this kind of Addiction doesn’t hurt anybody else or yourself for that matter —- You might not have much money in the end though
Congratulations
Raccoon, very nice accomplishment!
What is “old school vaping”?
I’ve been clean and sober for 18 years. I was recently in your area at the http://www.fourtwentybank.com/ great lounge.
Can I consider myself clean and sober since Cannabis is legal in Cali?
Congrats RC !!
——So a minor “congrats” to me. —-
we disagree.
it is a MAJOR congrats to you.
RC, I have the same question about vapes… what is the difference between old and new school? I have never felt the need for anything more than papers and a zippo for the 4 or 5 times a year I partake. I guess, at least I mostly know what is in it that way.
Hello RC,
I am glad that you were able to stop in time on your own, before you placed your self beyond any and all human aid. When that happens, there is a solution, but it involves taking action to get connected to a power greater than ourselves that will solve the problem of lack of willpower.
27 years…. that is indeed an accomplishment!! Congratulations & thanks for sharing your story my friend.
Your advice is stellar also.
Amen to both statements… especially the money one.

You are doing the right thing, keep your friends close, but understand who is a real friend.
A real friend will never expect you to follow them into using any drug or doing anything illegal.

Friends — Hah — They’re highly over rated in the Partying scene
Congrats!
Have you thought of entering the priesthood?
Sorry, I shouldn't have done that on your thread. I was in a mood this morning. Want me to delete/edit? I have no problem doing it.
No one has been "inspired" to start a debate on vaping so I think your post is okay.
