RBC1074 · 08-01-2006, 02:57 PM

Hello Everyone I know it has been awhile since I have posted on this board but Iam back and in much need of support right now. I left my AH seeing he went from abuseing pain pills to crack concaine he tried to take me down that road and there for awhile I was useing right along with him but came to my senses and been clean. Things got really bad to the point where he threatend to kill my parents and my dogs and told us to leave so the kids and I packed up what we could and left. Right now we are staying in a shelter and I haveorder of protection and custody of my girls. I never thought that he would start useing crack but I guess I was wrong. I also lost alot of weight from the verbal and emotional abuse. My son who is not his has sufferd alot with the name calling. So basically we are starting all over for a better life. I dont have computer access unless Iam at my moms who has been a wonderful help to me right now and is paying all my bills. I hope to be posting on a daily base seeing I need so much moral support. I also have my dogs at the local shelter but haveing a heck of time trying to find a apartment that will allow me to keep them Please pray that I find a NICE understanding landlord that will allow me to keep atleast 1 of my fur babies.

Welcome back and man them drugs and the disease of addiction take us to the depths of hell quick huh!?! I am so sorry that you are having it hard, but I also know that as long as we stay clean and go to meetings, work the steps, and practice the principles in all of our affairs then things will get better. I am glad that you at least have a place to live, I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Take care of yourself and don't be so hard on yourself OK.

Love Vic

Welcome back. Are you going to NA meetings?

You have made your FIRST decision....to STOP taking drugs. That is awesome, it is a very hard lesson to learn BUT you will be OK....I see that you are making a lot of headway with the shelter, your Mother's support and the plain fact that you just said NO. I am very proud of you and continue the good work....use your Higher Power to help heal and bless you daily....it is a constant battle at times BUT you will win IF you are truly accepting of NA........Many Blessings and OH.....PLEASE Kiss your Kids-they have been through alot.......PEACE...Kahlia

I'm also sending up prayers for you and your kids. Congratulations on your clean time. Addiction is a progressive disease as you can see in your AH behavior moving onto harder drugs. Keep posting and if you'd like, come on over to the Nar-Anon board for support in dealing with your AH's behavior. You'll find love and support from people who have been in the same situation you're in.
Hugs and Prayers,
