Addiction And Recovery

169 members
This group is focused on addiction and recovery. All addicts are welcome. All people are welcome that have addictions in their lives. If you have a mother or father, brother or sister, or a son or daughter that is an addict and you just need a place to share your lives and find people like you then this group is for you. We can all share our lives and help build awareness and more importantly... help one another. This group is here for when you are having a bad day, but more importantly, this group is here for when you are having a great day. Share the things that get you through your recovery! The ins and outs of your day! Your collections and hobbies just may help the next person. People in recovery with clean time inspire those with none. This is my goal... to inspire. I love you all and this group MUST BE JUDGEMENT FREE AND ZERO HATERS ALLOWED!!! If I see rude activity or rude behavior then I will contact SNUPPS to have you removed. Everyone is welcome though! ✌🏻& ❤️ ~Gregory~more

WHICH DO YOU PREFER? COLUMN 1👆🏼 OR 👆🏼COLUMN 2 . THESE ARE MY LAST 6 PERSONAL PICKUPS THAT EITHER I HAVE BOUGHT FOR MYSELF OR MY GF, @swimminglyso , HAS BOUGHT FOR ME AS A GIFT. PEOPLE GET SOOOO CAUGHT UP IN THE HYPE AND THE EXPENSIVE ITEMS AND COLLABS AND ALL THE LIMITEDS ETC ETC (you catch my drift). WE GOT ALL OF THESE SHOES FOR UNDER RETAIL WHICH IS HOW WE WERE ABLE TO GET ALL 6 OF THESE PAIRS OF NEW JORDANS AND SBs. I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR MY GF AND FOR SNUPPS AND STOCKX AND ALL THE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT I GET TO SHARE MY JOURNEY WITH. I GET TIPS HERE AND THERE AND GET TIPS ON CODES AND EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS. THERE ARE GREAT PEOPLE IN THE SNEAKER COMMUNITY AND SERIOUSLY... YOU SHOULD THINK ABOUT HOW YOU WANT TO BE SEEN AND HOW YOU WANT TO ACT. WE DONT HAVE TO BE “KNOW IT ALLS,” OR PUT DOWN PEOPLE THAT DONT KNOW EVERYTHING. ITS ALSO INCREDIBLY AWESOME WHEN PEOPLE HAVE THEIR OWN STYLE AND BUY WHAT THEY LIKE AND WEAR WHAT THEY LIKE BECAUSE ‘THAT’ IS WHAT MOVES OUR CULTURE AND HOBBY FORWARD. . Seriously though everyone, there are so many shoes in the sneaker world, there are so many flavors to choose from and there are gems waiting to be found around every single corner. Dare to be a little different and to have your own style and be fearless is your lives. Whatever you do in this world, attack your day with a fearless ferocity and be vulnerable and be yourselves. It’s ok to fail and be uncomfortable... that is when we learn the most. . I’m going on vacation this week with my gf and my mother and it’s our first vacation together and I will be making BIG strides in my website. I will also be making videos and be bringing sneakers to the beach for pics and videos and I could truly use my SNUPPS peoples support to help carry my website, InstaGram, and YouTube channel into that next level ish. Stay tuned for updates. This was a bit of a ramble, I apologize, I’m tired AF. Goodnight 🙏🏼 . -✌🏼&❤️- -Gregory-

It’s literally impossible to start my day off poorly... I have the most beautiful, funny woman in the world and the best cat ever... Lucy Cat and @swimminglyso , are easily the two most precious, beautiful women in my life and everyday is a beautiful day because I have them in my life to wake to and go to sleep with. I also get to wake up seeing my sneaker collection and that is just the best ever because my collection is half art half hobby and all love because it’s mine and my girlfriend is such s huge part of it. I love my life lately. I’m just so grateful❤️❤️

My cat was everything to me during my addiction and recovery... often she was all I ever had and she knew it. On really bad days Lucy really gave me the love I needed but she has always been a little more... standoffish... towards everyone. She treats me like her boyfriend haha but she has let my girlfriend, @swimminglyso , Sarah, into our life now which honestly surprised the shit out of me and now she sleeps on her while the love of my life sleeps like an angel next to me. Lucy cuddles Sarah and purrs and just soaks up her love now and it makes me so damn happy. I would do anything for either of my girls so it makes me so happy that they love one another so much❤️❤️

I have EARNED the maximum of 4 full weeks. It takes three years to do this and I’m the first person ever to do it at my clinic. I only have to go to my clinic once a month now to refill my medication. I never missed a single day of medication dosing. I never missed a single group. I never even missed a single one-on-one with my counselor and now I have EARNED the maximum number of doses that my facility will allow. I am so happy and so proud to be where I am at today. I have come so far. Literally, about three and a half years ago I overdosed and died in the back of my moms car and was brought back to life because of a first responder EMT that had to use three doses of NARCAN to get me coherent and breathing again... now I am four weeks away from having my license to help addicts get clean... this is a beautiful world we live in. I am a lucky man. I am laying in bed right now with @swimminglyso by my side sleeping like an angel and I am just reflecting on my life and I just don’t know how I got so lucky... hard work and good choices open beautiful doors and with a little love and courage and gumption our lives can get more meaningful every single day. I choose to be happy and healthy every single day and I love my life and the people in it the best way I know how and in return I get that same love back. We keep all the wonderful things we have in this world by giving them away... love, respect, integrity, honor, balance, trust, ourselves... the list goes on. The happiness and fullness I have in my heart as I write this moment, laying in bed next to my sleeping beauty, is just... so profound. It’s hard to even describe. I am alive and I have today, and I am preparing for a tomorrow, and I have a woman that I want to walk through this life with and in this moment I am perfect. I am redemption. I am love. I am strong. I am grateful ❤️

My beautiful girlfriend, Sarahs aka @swimminglyso , got me this journal because I really needed a new one. My previous journal is going to be set on fire with Sarah one of these days when the weather gets better so we can reeeeeally enjoy it haha 🤣😂 . My old journal had so many unhealthy ramblings from a past me that was unhealthy and it just had too many reminders of terrible things and choices I made... it needs to be given back to the universe and let go. . More importantly, I started a new life on April 1, 2016 and I started the journey that is recovery from heroin and ALL other drugs and alcohol. Even more importantly, this journey uncovers all of the behavioral issues I have had my entire life and it made me confront all of them. I was not a good person when I was sick and using and even parts when I was a, “dry drunk,” a term used to describe someone that isn’t using at the time but hasn’t changed anything so they are still just as twisted as when they were using. I used and hurt everyone I came into contact with because that is what addiction does and my current girlfriend is someone that I met a long time ago when I was sick and I put her through hell. We always had a connection but me being the way I was, I abused the relationship and almost ruined everything... cut to now... and I have three years clean and sober and my girlfriend and I are just totally head over heels for one another. We are taking it slow because we are both still working through past shit that I did wrong, but this woman... my god... this woman is the strongest and most vulnerable, beautiful woman I have ever met. I have never been given such pure love that comes from such s genuine place and I have never been loved so much for who I am as a person. Sarah bought me this beautiful new journal to show me that I have something to write in and to let me know that I can still grow and change and still get better and better which is just so awesome. I seriously have the best girlfriend. I can fill this new journal with a healthy version of me and with a healthy version of my relationship with Sarah. I can draw in it, work out my personal struggles, whatever I want. Sometimes when my life gets really stressful and I start to lose control, I get out my journal and start writing gratitude entries every single night and then write 3-10 things I am looking forward to, “tomorrow and this week,” whenever that may be. Now I have this brand new journal that is just beautiful, unique, genuine, special, and just for me. In many ways it’s just like Sarah and our relationship❤️. This was such an amazing gift and I am so ready to fill these pages with my thoughts, my life, my sobriety, my relationship, my love, my gratitude, my desires, my dreams, my ramblings, and anything else I just NEED to put on paper in order to get through it... Sarah has given me the gift of clarity and how do you even put a price on that...? She is a special woman and that is why I try so hard everyday to beloved make her feel that way. . Sarah, @swimminglyso , I am in love with you... thank you for this wonderful gift... it means the world to me. We have so much love and such a bright future... I love you❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️

🔥🔥 @sneakerhistory 🔥🔥 . Support @sneakerhistory and @nickengvall , on IG & Twitter, and the podcasts on all platforms, because people like this dude make the world a better place. I wanted the Jordan 3 mug real bad but I quit drinking caffeine. Put that design on the back of a shirt or a water bottle and I’ll buy another one man! . Also, I say support this guy and this website because they are worth supporting. Let me tell you all a little story. Three years ago I was coming off of heroin and just getting back into collecting sneakers as a way to heal and have a hobby in my life and I was trying to learn to become a good uncle and @nickengvall saw a post I made on IG and he contacted me and sent me merch and he sent me Black Cement 3s for my little nephew and he sent me a pair of shoes in a colorway I had not had yet. He sent me stickers and a T-shirt but also a note that I pinned on my board and I see it every single day... I am 3 years sober from ALL drugs and alcohol and now I am 5 weeks from having my license to help addicts get clean and sober. Nick was a stranger. That is the power that all people have in this world. Imagine what this world would look like if everyone was like Nick... I think about that often and have tried to give back more because of him. . So, Nick... you make me a shirt with cement 4s on the back and BC3s and I’ll buy those too... you have my support bro and I love the site and podcasts. . PS... currently making a site... 🙂

Sobriety has been amazing... I’ve been reflecting so much lately on my life. My gf is going through a lot and I talk to her about a lot and I realize sometimes just how far I have come.

Family love and family trust is literally priceless and the most important thing a person can have... . I don’t know how many of you know anything about me but this seriously hit me pretty hard... it truly made me realize how far I have come... I’m truly grateful for everyone I have in my life.more
My sister gave me a $50 bill as part of my Christmas gift... only an addict truly understands how crazy this is... three years ago my sister NEVER would have given my $5 on a gift card because she knows what I can do with $5 on a gift card... this took me back a little... really made me realize how far I have come that my sister will gift me $50 for Christmas. I am like 2 or 3 days away from having a full 1,000 days clean and sober from any and ALL mind altering substances and life is amazing. I still have some personal battles and hurtles to overcome and some health issues I NEED better but I am able to work on those things now and take care of things as they happen with the love and support of my family and friends... I just got $50 from my sister... so insane...
