Rehab Update

[izzabizza]

Hello all. I'm just saying I am starting Out Patient and this means no contact with anyone from home for the next 11 weeks or so. I want to get sober, but I always have the urges to get high. I cried today, yesterday, and the day before, but friends here are like friends I have never had before. In an instant they were already my brothers and

well hey lizz, tis alex. i'm glad to hear things are going so well, as for me ive been sick as hell, but ill live. i got some stickers for my car recently that i think you'd be proud of. one being a psychedelic rendition of jerry garcia's face, and the other being different colored phish logos. pretty cool huh? well anywho, tell me when you get back so we can chill, its been awhile. its great to know that you've found all sorts of cool friends in there. i sure wish i had 30 or so people who understood me and have done as many drugs as me, sounds pretty nifty. im glad that you are doing so well and its not as bad as you thought. hurry home, everyone misses you.

sincerely, Alex Golden

well hey alex I'm sorry to hear you are so sick. and OH MY FUCKING GOD ::::::TACKLES YOU WITH GIANT HUG::::::: I cant believe you got those stickers. you are now THAT much kickass. 13 days till my month sober. And its cool because, i am really lovin life. But relapsing is always in my head. Alex, I'm not pressuring you but I honestly think you love it here with all these dope fiends. Its honestly not like a rehab. I went to the fucking lake last night. There is so much fucking freedom. and NOOOO SCHOOOLL.. hahaha I go to the 4 hour a day meetings monday through thursday and then the rest of the time we are free to roam. Crazy. Alex, you'd fit in and find what really happiness is. But only if you want to. I know if I hadnt gotten sober yet I'd be all "awwww fuck that" but really. Life has changed and its great. I miss you so much.

much love, Lizz Hendrix

Hello my dear cousin! I cannot even begin to explain how much everyone here misses you. I cant even leave the house without someone coming up to me and asking how you are. I think i may start telling everyone that u got eaten by a bear or something, ya know just to spice things up around here. We havent had very many family dinners since you've been gone, so ur not missing out on all the "fun". Well, its great to know that ur not miserable down there and that you're surrounded by some pretty awesome people. I hope that they'll let me come visit you soon, b/c i need me some Lizz!! mmmmmmmm Liiiiiiizzzzzzzz :)~.....incest is wrong.... :-0

if u ever get the chance to call me, here's my cell phone number 706-2181 . And now that i have posted my number on the internet all the creepy e-stalkers can call me too! oh joy

I love you!! maybe too much, maybe too little...*sigh*

Hey it's brett. I just needed a quick way to talk to you since you cant use aim. man it is really messed up at school, people are blaming ms.houchin for what happened to you. Ms.Houchin is saying that someone came up to her and very rudly implied that "YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN!! WHY DID YOU NOT TELL ANYONE??", its fucked up. she also is saying that your step mom is coming off to her the same way; ms. houchin said, "hey i have a bunch of liz's art work, do you want it" and your step mom didn't really care. ms. houchin made her sound like laura was a real bitch to her. i am not making a journal or anything because i couldnt stand to keep track of my life. thats pretty cool that every thing is going good with you. You wouldn't believe what happened to my brother, holy shit. i will tell you later.

Re: hey liz!

oh my fucking god... okay what is up with that blaming ms. houchin??? jesus christ. Fuck those people. Tell ms. houchin I send my love and I miss her. But I have two art friends here and I am painting a mural in my friend rick's basement with another art chick named Sharon. I have a few drawings hangin up at the shop where we have coffee and meetings. I miss you a lot man, but things are great. Tell people to lay off ms. houchin or I am goin to be kickin some ass... god damn. Anywho, I must be goin. Keep me posted how things in your life are and fucking school. I will definately talk to you later man. Peace Love and Soberity.

since this isn't a private party yet I'll come and join

hey liz you could guess who this is. first off leaving GDS hasn't the same since you left so I got air in my bike and that is my transportation down the road instead of walking. I am glad to hear that your doing alright and I want you to know that you are the strongest person alive. not because you got caught and was put into the program, but because you gave it a chance, put yourself into the care of others and found a different way of life that, from what i can tell, is living. I know you probly wont read this for awhile or wont be able to respond but I'll be checkin up on the journal.
