I am well! - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

hippyhippy · 06-13-2009, 04:54 AM

Just wanted to come in and say to folks who have helped me out such a lot over the last year or two, that I actually, finally, feel well!

It has been a long slog and had many many ups and downs, but I really feel that maybe eventually, I have the right combo of meds, my therapy is now getting somewhere and my confidence is growing.

Anxiety is still a player in my daily moods and I do have to take benzo's occassionally for this and I am also still unable to work, but I am working towards getting there.

I am sorry I have not been on here as much, helping people who have helped me. I have found as I have been getting more and more well, I have been spending less and less time at the computer. My social anxiety is so much better too so I have been going out a lot more.

Thanks to everyone.....and don't give up the fight!
