Anyone who doesn’t understand what its like to be an addict will never understand that every second of everyday you’re constantly battling your own brain. Keep telling this story! We need more success stories instead of the constant negative news.

You are correct. People who aren’t addicted do not understand it’s in your mind constantly. It is hard. Sad but true for us who have this trouble/ disease . Glad to always hear when someone can over come it one day at a time.

I don't think there have been a lot of doubters after Crosby played his first professional game. He is that good. But it's good to have that voice to say that someone is doubting you so you still have that fire to keep getting better.
