Hi new to ths page but not to board

hello,

I am a painkeler addict and was involved in a auto accident last friday which resulted in tickets for CDS in MV DWI and driving off the road..............................

I have been straight since and have been doing nothing but crying because of this

But I think my biggest problem is the Depression that has become un bearable due to the estrangement from my daughter..............

My ex husband who also has a drug problem but also suffers from a recurrent case of Ulcerative Colitis. She thought it best to stay with him since he may get sick at any time.

I left the home with nothing in 2001 and the divorce was final the beginning of Feb of 2003

When I left the home my daughter who is 20 now and very materialistic I started all over again using my crdit cards because my job was eliminated by my Company.

I paid many of her credit card debts and bills with of course my credit cards..

All her father has supplied is a roof over her head.

I need to find a phsycologist but more than that a pyschiatrist in

the
West Milford New Jersey area of New Jersey or
Greenwood Lake New York area of New York

Can anyone help I am becoming very depressed and afraid

Thank you so much

Hi Lady,

Welcome to the forum. I'm not sure what all those letters stand for, but I am sorry to hear about your accident, and other problems. I'm sure your aware though that pain pill abuse can really aggravate depression.

I will have our administrator read your post to see if he can refer you to some help in your area.

In the meantime, try not to give up hope, just take it one day at a time. Things can get better for you.

Juls

Hi Lady, we have the same picture...

I´m sorry to hear about your accident. That´s a scary experience and it takes time to heal mentally. Try to be good to yourself.

Juls is right, it´s best to take it one day at a time. I´ve found in situations like this, things simply become too overwhelming and then I try to take one problem and do something constructive about it. You have a lot on your plate right now, but try not to juggle too many balls at once. Take one problem and look at it, and the other things won´t seem so unmanagable.

I wish you hope and courage to get throught this dark moment, but it will pass.

Let us know how you´re doing and remember, when overwhelming emotions suffocate us we don´t see things in perspective. Take it slow and keep it simple.

My thoughts are with you,

Dear Lady,

I will remember you in prayer tonight. I'm sure you'll connect with the right therapists. You want help and that's awesome. Welcome to the board.
