Hello everyone. Well it's been long since I last posted. My doctor prescribed Ritalin for ADD. I was 5 months clean then. But I guess my body was allergic to Ritalin. It did nothing but give me panic attacks. I felt like having a heart attack. So my doctor got me of them.

I am now 54 days clean again.I go to meetings daily. I think I'm even doing better than before because I figured out that for us there's no quick fix. Nothing really helped me but meetings and excercise. I walk for 40 minutes and swim everyday. I guess our bodies react to medications different than normal people. So now when I'm feeling hyperactive, I try to find ways to slow my brain down like putting on some relaxing music. The most important thing is that I learned to accept myself as I am. I know that I have so many issues but it's ok. I can do my best today. It's hard but going back out there is even more painful. So I am grateful to be clean today.
