I gave up the drugs a long time ago(2005), and all of the toxic people that went along with them.

That's why i'm alone now...

My social group when i was young was built around getting ****ed up and using together, and after i got clean, i basically never learned how to find friends without drugs. It's very lonely. I think i missed out on a lot of normal social relationships because of my drug use, and i still don't really understand how to relate to people without that crutch.

It was so much easier to relate to people when you are using, no one has taught me how to make relationships without having that community. It's especially hard being gay. Where do you meet normal sober gay people? A glee club?
