Thanks to Abraxas I - I now have the mindset and skills to be successful and manage for the rest of my life which is a very big accomplishment for someone who had a very rough life and had zero hope. It bettered me. I rebuilt relationships with people who I thought would never ever take me back. I made people who were disgusted with me proud of me. If stuff like that isn’t reason enough to walk away from the drug and criminal subculture you’re involved in, I don’t know what is. I owe the staff at Abraxas a debt that can never be repaid. I am eternally grateful.
