I used to be nothing. Deeply flawed in so many ways. I used to think a prescription was the only answer to everything. I found out the hard way what a bad precedent that sets. A loser my whole life, at 16 I was on adderall 60mg and other stuff. And for awhile I did give up, but in 2024, I made myself homeless because when youre uncomfortable, it forces your hand. Eventually you get tired of the circumstances youre in. I went to the hospital twice, got wrongfully arrested, found god. Found purpose. Beat lust for over a year, worked out, got employee of the month twice all while getting sober. I achieved my lifelong dream of driving to Miami. I told myself i was going to walk through the doors of the cardone foundation and so i did. People told me how crazy it was yet i did it. And it was more than worth it. I mended some relationships, realized I was in the wrong and stopped being homeless. My sleep improved. My health improved Ive fallen off quite significantly and its soul crushing as ive become a former shell of myself. It just begs the question. What would giving up really entail? submitted by /u/bullymaguire25
