new - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

romp · 07-20-2007, 02:38 PM

Hello all.
I posted in the introductions as to alcohol problems but i also have a host of MH issues. Which I'm medicated for which unfortunately leads to addiction of new substances...I honestly can NOT take medication as i should. I seem to forever be looking for that buzz..from whatever source. Shooting myself in the foot, I know...
But hopefully here i can find some support and start to change things...because i KNOW i really need to. I WANT to be well...that's all.
I dont think that is too much to ask.
I know i will never be 'cured' but i do want to achieve stability.
Finally after four years + of fighting i may be getting the proper help from the local MH team. Funny...no real support for so long, then suddenly in two days' time i have been give 3 appts for different supports...funny.
So fingers crossed that i can finally get all under control and learn how to live again, learn how to WANT to live again.
To be REALLY happy...not just the 'put on a happy face for the world' crap...
sorry...i suppose that was all over the place now wasnt it??
Look forward to talking with you all and helping if i can.
thanks for reading

Hi, Romp!
Welcome to SR!
Oh, I hear you well, and hope that we both continue to grow, sharing our ESH.
It's not too much to ask...

Shalom!

Welcome!

I would try to be helpful, but at the moment I am all over the place myself.

But, there are others here and they will be along.

Hello romp - Welcome. This forum really helps me with my MH and alcohol issues. I also have both, and it's been a lot of work to learn to care for myself, but worth it. Hang in there,
