Hey Y'all,
Today is my completion day. Just logged in "Not Selected" for UA, case manager assured me, my case will be closed, TODAY!. I can wake up and not log in tomorrow morning. I'm just elated! Scheduled my first unmonitored vacation in 3 years, a chartered fishing trip with my son. Might be cold an rainy outside today, But its bright an sunny inside for me.
Y'all keep swinging, you can win your fight for freedom too!

That's wonderful, Oogie! I'm thrilled for you... 7/2020 is my projected release from IPN. And I'm so looking forward to posting that here when the time comes.
Hope you're catching the big one right now!

Just courious, and it may be too early to answer this question with any perspective, but was the program you were in worthwhile? Could you have been where you are not without it? I see on this forum how angry nurses are while going through the process but don't often get to see the long view after a sustained sobriety.

Congrats now go live your life
subee, I do not feel the program I was in was worthwhile. I was nothing more than a computer generated number.

Sadly, that is the case now with so much of these now. I feel the same way. There is a slice of people that benefit from these programs and find them to be life/career saving. I think that was the original point.
Now, for so many more that are sucked in for all the wrong reasons, like Oogie, we are computer generated numbers in a file folder, like a core measures checklist. Check all the boxes.
Oogie, all your boxes have been checked and you’ve been signed off...out into the real world you go.....congrats, once again....????
