    Yet, I come on here and everyone tells me I'm pretty much screwed.

    Who do I listen to?



    EDIT - I'm highly considering joining the US Coast Guard which both of us think would really help...


    I am not sure if you gave your dad all of the details or not but maybe he doesnt want to kill your dream as long as you are staying clean. The reality is that you are dead in the water. You are also disqualified from any branch of the military.

    Maybe you should go back to school and explore what other fields are out there. You shot yourself in the foot early in life but you still can turn your ship around. There are many fields that do not require a security clearance or background check. You need to pick one.

    It seems to me that a lot of people that have substance abuse problems set themselves up for major disappointment by locking onto goals etc that are totally unrealistic or unattainable. Once the inevitable failure occurs this seems to be the excuse to jump back off of the wagon. Break the cycle and set yourself up for success. Good Luck!

    Mike-

    I don't know how to put it any more plainly than I already have.

    The only reason to delete the posts are to help you falsify your past. If refusing to do that makes me inflexible, then I'll be proud to wear that title.

    And I'm not the only mod here.

    This isn't just me, we're ALL on the same page.

    Since your account is now banned, and you can't get further PM's anyway, I figured this was as good a place as any to respond.

    To everyone else:

    Kids, hard drugs and Law Enforcement do not mix; don't expect cops to cover up your past crimes so you can get a job you want but are unfit to have.

    -Citicop.
