paul paul,paul,...
i went up there with more real sobriety under my belt than any of you....i did some unorthodox things,but it never made me put a joint in my mouth!shit,i hadn'yt been on "staff 2 days and i was getting shit from dean and sylvia....i called mel riddle BECAUSE i KNEW him better than any of you ppl.....he talked to them and they decided to find another way to get "rid" of me....this time it was like i was on my phases again!everyone reported me...the "report" that screwed me was the one where i told the group NOT to drink JOLT...yes JOLT COLA,because it made me feel jumpy
i was protecting the phasers from getting in trouble for drinking that drink....i was afraid a few of them would"BRAINWASHINGLY" REPORT THEMSELVES FOR FEELING GUILTY ABOUT A CAFFINE BUZZ
the next thing i know,i'm getting fired for "suspicion of drug use".....after that,i snapped....shit after what i had been through in st pete,that was the straw that broke the camels back.....i had three UNTREATED NERVOUS BREAKDOWNS IN THAT F_ING PLACE PAUL...the first was a suiside attempt on my 3rd day in there,the 2nd was getting started over FOR NOTHING on day 128 of my 1st 5th phase{I know it was for nothing because MARK NEWTON told me so}....staff made a mistake,but couldn't admit to it and left me started over...funny how thats the 1st step of any step program but they couldn't apply that bs to themselves....so i got more torure both mentally and pysically,ostrasized from everyone,and had to be in there for 13 1/2 months LONGER.....3 yrs later,after i relised that i was nothing but a grad from str8 with no social or job skills and was coersed into staff by my mom{go or get out of the house!}hell,even though i had been accepted by stoughton 3 MONTHS EARLIER,i was still unsure about being a staff member up there,but off i went!then 5 weeks later....5 F-ING WEEKS LATER,i was fired for "suspicion of drug use"....if i was so full of shit,then explain why jim murry got me a job somwhere else
before he fired me?thats what happened paul.....i didn't get that job babysitting ppl on my own...
in the same "breath" of you're fired,he gave me a job somwhere else....
hell yes i was messed up! who wouldn't have been after that f-ing witch hunt?who wouldn't have been after being told that they would be arrested for being on str8's sacred grounds?who wouldn't have been after he found out his roomates/supposed friends were the ones behind all of that shit? paul,i was falling apart,and the ppl that i thought were my friends helped me along.....after that crap,all the good i saw in str8,just disappeared....vanished....and with it went a good guy....i couldn't function anymore
i just didn't have another recovery after all the shit i went through in there....when that happened
i realised that everything i'd gone through in there was for nothing....oh,i did try to "recover"
i did try to "blame" myself for that shit,just like i did when i was started over,but i didn't have enough in me to do so.....in spite of what happened to me up there,i did stay off drugs for 1 more yr.....i should've gone back to V.a,but i wanted to come home with my head held high....it
NEVER HAPPENED.....between that thing you call a state ,ASSACHUSETS,arresting me for "driving on a suspended license"that WASN'T suspended,
{i went down to V.a to clear my suspension,but they said it wasn't...when i brought up proof,the judge said it was suspended in ASSACHUSETS!}
and all the grief i had been subjected to by you and the other ppl involved,i went into depression,
and much more....i wound up on the streets of boston not giving shit about anything.....all of what happened to you by me, happened AFTER I WAS FUCKED OVER BY STRAIGHT and of course you!!!!! the last few months i was around you guys,yes i shirked my rent.by then i was usless...i was mentally f-ed up! remember what the "program" said?"your actions can screw somones life up"...do you remember that?
well,when i went up there,i was fine,normal happy go lucky goof ball as you put it....after that witch hunt,i was a raging lunatic!i had NOWHERE OR NO ONE TO VENT MY ANGER WITH....everyone thought i was all of a sudden,full of shit! no one
wanted anything to do with me....i couldn't "practice" what i was taught to do to deal with it....i was totally on my own!excommunicated from everything and everybody....
was that your doings also?was it dean or sylvias?
who was i supposed to trust after that shit happened?you?we were friends paul,mostly because you remember me coming in to support all of you guys on your phases.....i knew the place was f-ed up,but i knew the one thing i didn't have much when i was in there was hope!in my own f-ed up way,i was giving you guys hope!showing you there was life after straight....that what you were experiencing was only temporary....not forever!
how many other 7 steppers did you see do that ?
no..it wasn't cause i was dependant on the f-ing "program" or even that i believed in its bs so much as it was that i wanted the others that came in after me,to have it better than i did! in
some way,i felt like i was helping them through thier struggles in that place.....many phasers looked forward to me coming in and talking about being 7 stepped....life after hell....hearing me
talk about my own struggles in life as a 7 stepper
and when i was in st pete....i was there a long time paul...19 1/2 months! if you think i'm bull shit,then tell me paul,where did you get off "reporting me"....what was that supposed to help me?was it like the "therapy" i recieved in st pete? making me piss in my pants to "humble me?
throwing me into the time out room 2 times in my first week? i know! pinning me on the ground with 5 of the biggest kiss ass goons to cut my hair?
how about the whole open meeting review being devoted to me...for 4 hrs! then the next day more of the same for the whole day....then getting started over for shit that i had approved by senior staff{like you}! only to find out 10 months later,by miller newtons son,that my start over was bull shit! a mistake! hell,by the time i found that out,i had already been there 20 months!
leaving would've been stupid....i was almost on 5th again and i would've just been hunted down and brought back because my parents were so brainwashed into the f-ing place and the fred collins thing hadn't even happened yet...he was still in there!
oh , i called DEAN"NO VASALINE PLEASE"MINSTRETTA'S
bar....found out that he didn't own it anymore..also found out he IS GAY!!!!the most f-ed up thing about your mentor,was that i can remember him confronting MANY guys{not just one}
for "guy,guy" relationships only to find out he's a bone smoker himself! i don't care if he knows what i said just like i don't care about what i wrote about stoughton.....here's somthing you and your little group don't get...we on this forum are just waiting for you! we were fucked up by a single incident or in my case many,and we didn't have a cozy "program",weren't groomed for staff and made staff members...none of us were! oh,and we didn't "live behind the doors of straight"to stay sober either....at least for me,thats not the case...lies? whatever man.....i wish this shit had happened to you....i'd love to see how you would've dealt with it!thanks for my last nervous breakdown....my ass is still bleeding from it....come on down to my concert paul....
i'm sure everyone would love to see you...yes,i have a concert every year in the same place! its for underprivileged kids who's parents can't afford to buy them an instrument.....i still help out as many ppl as i can....somthing i can't seem to quit doing....just like when i was 7 stepped
and i came in and sung "american pie" to you guys or "rocket man".....how many ppl did i ruin by doing that paul...you? lol..please go tell somone who gives a shit!i'll give you the .50 cents to call! i begged to be on staff?begged? please dude,you're killing me!...so go on,go to germany and ride around in mikes car and talk up a good one about me....i wonder how many lives you ruined?i know one paul.....mine! oh,i know you don't believe it,but you guys did.....how could i be at fault for getting fired for drinking JOLT COLA?....suspicion of drug use...please.....matt mal00l3y [ This Message was edited by: Eudora on 2006-05-04 23:48 ]
