Hi.

For the better part of ten years I have struggled in and out of substance abuse. Some years I seemed to have better control over it, and then out of nowhere there would be a kind of wrecking period where I just went into self-destruct mode and like a tornado destroyed anything that stood in between me and whatever it was that I was using to numb myself to pain and stress. I want to be sober. I don't want to hurt myself. I don't want to cause pain to those around me. I need help.

You've come to the right place. Spend some time reading other people's stories and post when you need to talk. Welcome!

Yeah that article is definitely on point to my thought processes. I really want to change into a more growth orientated mindset as oppsoed to this fixed one that I have that is so negative. Thanks for sharing this with me.
