    You may not see it today, or tomorrow, but you will look back in a few years and be absolutely perplexed and awed by how every little thing added up and brought you something wonderful-or where you always wanted to be. You will be grateful that things didn’t work out the way you once wanted them to.

Ive over dosed 4 times flat lined twice but they brought me back ..... But anyways I recently have just been so fucking fed up with this lifestlye of constant struggle so I decisded to go to rehab but when I got there I saw a the doctor there and they informed me of my diagnosis and it really fucked me up know ...like I finally got some hope and decided to make a move to get better and I find that out ...and of course I used it as a excuse to leave and go back to using I've been so isolated and just exhuasted and sick .....but I've been threw hell and back in this life I'll be dammed if I don't attempt to reach out and help some struggling teens lost in addiction and depression I wanna share my story as much as I can before I go and even if it only helps one kid I'll be able to die happy ...thank u for the motivation to get back in the game and try to better my life u and Rogan help me out so much u guys have no idea I'm like in tears wrighting this because there have been nights where I had nothing and was sleeping on the streets but u guys kept me fucking laughing the whole time ....thank u man

    Joey made a strong point: We need to differentiate Productivity Vs Multi Tasking. You are Productive when you follow a list of things to do and get done, you are productive when you get things done one thing after the other. You get high, you go to the bathroom you do all your things, you go back to your bedroom where all your clothes are already laying down neatly on the bed, you get dress, you go back to the kitchen, open the Fridge get your Visine in your Eyes and then you are free to go to the PC and you do all the Multi Tasking you want !!!

    God dammit, me too, Lee Syatt. I did the same thing , didn't have to study or try too hard; made As & B's. I think for sure that has held me back in my life. I find it extremely difficult to take risks and I'm scared AF to make mistakes, so I end up not making the move at all. I allowed myself to 'get by' and waste a bunch of time/energy on music when i should have pushed myself to be a better student. I left a lot on the table and wasted it then and I'm paying for it now. I f*** myself multitasking w no list, too. Thank you for this great advice, Uncle Joey Diaz & Lee Syatt.
