I graduated in the requisite 90 days or so.  Was involved for maybe a year afterwards. Went on to other weirder controlling stuff.   ::stab::

I was in The Seed about '73, lost lots of memory from heavy drug use as teenager, went back to
NorthEast High School and continued messing up.
15 years later, almost dead, I found AA, and have
been sober almost 20 years now.

This was a traumatic experience in my life, feel strange talking about it. I was there when they move from the city out to near Alligator Alley.

Can someone tell me some specifics about this period. I remember being in the tent, lived with
a heroin addict in Miami for a while.
Actually, I was a really messed up teenager that
was way out there. I would like to revisit some of these thoughts/feelings.
I live in KY now with a beautiful family, live is
good, but still have problems with anger, depression ect...but blessed indeed.

I stayed in for 8 months but only stayed clean for 2 years. I sort of got messed up in the music scene.Went in military and had a breakdown and soon moved onto harder drugs and faced adjudication after discharge. I'm incapacitated. But still, since I sobered up and right in time I just take medication and stay with what I've learned with the Help of hings I learned from the Seed. Not actually any program. Just things that staff used to say in rap sessions. Topics and stuff. Them an internet education for 7 years of doing nothing but surfing I got to learn a lot about what I was in for. Plus I've had a lot of out of the paranormal things happen in my life. I escaped alive.  
If you think about why you hate me, you might find that it's not me.

I went to the Seed in 74 and graduated in 6 months.  I ended up staying there until the Seed closed.  I thoroughly enjoyed all of the years that I got a chance to be in the group and felt like I learned so much from the Seed.  I know there are plenty of you that did not feel the way I do but that was my experience.  

Also, Antigen I do remember you as a kid going to the open meetings with your mom but never remember you coming into the Seed.  I know you went to Straight but don't remember you at the Seed.

Antigen:
No, I never did go into the Seed. Wow! You stayed for all those years? That's practically unimaginable to me. I started looking for the exit by the time I was around 9 or 10.
