Lacks sufficient drug free social outlets or friendships to support abstinence/recovery. Family/living environment does not limit access to substances and/or other using individuals."

I'm going to show them wrong.
I believe you will. I also believe the person who wrote those notes would love for you to prove them wrong too!

I wish you a measure of peace, stability. I wish you recovery.

Be good to yourself @MuddyBoots. If you trust nothing else, trust the stubborn determination that comes from wanting to prove them wrong.
