Robert's Story

I just read some of the stories you young people have shared. Let me tell you a little about some of my experiences. I was a good basketball player, good grades, well liked in community but at the age of 15 was introduced to drugs & alcohol. I guess I went over the edge with it-- nothing or nobody mattered. I had to leave my hometown because people didn't want their kids hanging with me.

All you guys it's not worth hurting yourself. Today I’m clean & sober. Life is still not bed of roses and never will be. I can't walk very well but I thank God every day. So think about long term effects before you do something STUPID. Thanks for the opportunity to express my views …love yourself even if you think no one else does. God bless you all.
