About a year ago I quit heroin and since then I've completely isolated myself and wallowed in depression while gaining weight (I'm 6'0, went from 120lbs to 220lbs). I've since lost all my friends and you guys have been my only source of social activity. I've made a pact with myself that I'm going to finally fix my life. For the past week I have been making healthier choices, maintaining a routine shower/shave/etc routine, reaching out to former friends and trying to get out of the house more. It kinda sucks cause I'm in debt and my cars inspection is way overdue and it's no longer insured so I have to resort to others to drive me places. Since I've been isolating myself, I haven't really gotten rides anywhere.

Long story short, I lost my job and I've felt like I burned all of my bridges since then so I dumped my retirement savings to go on a drug bender which I originally planned to overdose at the end of. I was having too much fun and forgot the whole kill myself part and it left me broke and hopeless. My actions made me feel even more depressed and lost, unsure of who I am. I tried to escape from reality for too long and feel like now is the time to put myself back together. I don't plan on leaving 4chan, been coming here for too long and it's been long ingrained in my routine. I just wanted to get this out and thank you guys for being awesome.

TLDR: Thank's anon, you may have kept me alive.
