I am Teiso, a recovering drug user. I have experienced lots of pain, loneliness, distrust, self–pity, frustration and despair due to my drug addiction. I had vowed many times to myself, my wife and family members that I would stop drug use but failed. I used to tell myself never to do things like the others addicts but failed all those things. I was lonely, frustrated, depressed and terrified of not knowing what to do or what will I become in future.

I tried a numbers of ways to stop my habits of drug use, geographical changes, home detoxification, substitute drug with alcohol but all my attempts went in vain. My best efforts were overpowered and I can still remember vividly the pain and suffering my wife went through because of me and I spent several nights in tears sitting alone in self–pity, shame, guilt, frustration, loneliness and angry with myself. Finally I decided to change, no matter what it took. That was the 'turning point' in my life.
