Meth is qiuckly bringing me death!.... - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

GNDRBNDR209 · 04-26-2011, 03:23 AM

I am a 48 yr old lesbian female , I have been using meth on and off for the last almost twenty yrs! During that time I had my Psych. Nursing lic. revoked, went to jail had a half a dozen felonies and other chgs. I definately am not getting any younger, the only thing I am greatful for is the fact I stoped using meth I.V. 5 yrs ago. I am powerless over my meth addiction, and am looking to N.A. for tools and suggestions to overcome my addiction.

Welcome. Have you tried attending meetings?

I feel for you....or with you. I'm also a IV meth addict. Everyday for 5 years straight. I don't really have a easy answer for you because I know how hard it is. I started my step one in jail. I was there for 3 months! Now if that isn't powerlessness over my life I don't know what is. Although I hated every minute of it, I am grateful now. I'm almost 8 months clean today. It took almost 6 months to get my head out of that cloud that doesn't let you see your consequences. Just do it for today. I have to do this also because I struggle with my addiction everyday. Please go to a meeting. AA or NA either one will help you spiritually. And keep going back because it does work! One day at a time! Remember you are worthy of a healthy body and a healthy life!

Try going to 90 meetings in 90 days and try not to use inbetween that's what they told me.

They also said if I continued to use they had 3 places they would promise I would end up at and that is Jails, Institutions, or Death

There is always hope as long as we are breathing
