Do you beleive that drug abuse can be over come? Is someone who over comes their addiction always going to be a recovering addict? Do you feel that rehab is absolutey necessary for someone to over come any addiction or can some people do it on their own with out rehab?

Will power & motivation are the key I think. Like the original poster I did a pretty good amount. Mostly uppers to stay awake. I graduated with honors from high school too. But my main reason on doing it was I was afraid of sleep. Stupid, huh? But my stepdad raped me one night after I had gone to bed & it left a lot of "what if I had been awake - could I have stopped it?" questions, so I decided to stop sleeping & it left a lot more time to work on my homework & stuff. LOL.
But I moved away & I realized sleeping is okay now. And then I started my family. And things have been good for me for the past 4 years. :)
i just had to get away from my fears to let go of my "security blanket".
