Well said.. i used to do a lot of coke for a few years.. While i havent given up the drug completely i'd only do it once in a while...last time i did it was new years eve of last year.
What got me out was seeing what i was doing to myself, my family, what i had before and what i had lost...It was a rude awakening but something i needed. 
As long as you can control it and dont let it control you you'll be ok...
