PhanesDionysus35 karma

I was a heroin addict for 5 years. Screwed up my college classes was goin for chemistry. Though I did not achieve the career I was shooting for, it seems it was almost better that way. I learned a lot about people and myself. How to deal with my dark side and my intense emotions, things I see other people older than me struggle with regularly. Im alot more aware of others and less easily distracted by pleasure though I can still get caught up in it. My focus and determination have never been so well trained. Ill have 2 years clean in August.

I am a recovering heroin addict almost 2 years clean. How do you suggest I go about telling interveiwers about this and how to turn the weakness into a strength? I normally state it has made me alot more appreciative of life and grateful for what I do have.

Thanks, i def feel that with my personality I would have wound up worse off later in life had I not gone through this. Can never know truly but I like to think so. You should really check out natal chart astrology and how it correlates to people with negative coping mechanisms and addicton problems. I have strong connections with the outer planets, neptune is linked to escapism but also meditation and pluto with the darkness of the shadow unconscious and death but also transformation.

Id highly recommend checking out natal chart astrology and how people with addiction tends to have connections with neptune and pluto. Saturn also as he is the one that teaches through hardship. I have pluto directly conjunct my moon, neptune sextile and saturn trine. Pluto conjunct moon means a deep unconscious dependence on the feminine is formed, and there is a toxic relationship with the mother. My mom was one of the people I used the most with and it also helped me realize I tend to really look to women to help me and become more independent. I believe I managed to kill the psychological mother and transcend that. I am very into Jung.
