girl, i know from experience too that just getting away is what youve gotta do to cut out the drugs (at least the coke, in my experience). i had a serious coke problem for a few years that cost me a few relationships, my entire social network, several jobs, my familys trust, had me kicked out of houses, and left me broke. with no more money for drugs, i threw my dog, my records and some clothes in a rental car and drove from the bay area (california) to pennsylvania. and i was DONE. cold f-ing turkey. it hurt BAD. all i could think about was that best friend (coke) that i had had to abandon. my best friend, my companion, my late night buddy... and my worst enemy. the most toxic, most destructive, most manipulative 'person' i knew, but that was always there- taunting me. it is a wicked drug. wicked mostly in its manipulative ways... its got talons sharper than razor-blades that sink deep.

and you pulled yourself away from those talons. and that is so rough. and i know. and i want to high five you for that.

so sorry about running on. but i wanted to share with you that i did what you are doing to rip myself from the toxic drugland: i just packed my bags and took off. and it worked for me. and it its looking good for you, girl.
