Hopless drug addict
Names Daniel, figured i'd post here to supplement my AA/NA meetings. I'm 25 and i live in central california. As the title suggests i'm a hopeless drug addict. I was raised by a alcoholic and so therefore i became one. My problems hit a whole new level of disparity when my parents pased away and i staryes getting into pills, all kinds from opiates to benzos to GABA drugs like pregabalin and also muscle relaxers like soma.
Right now im homeless after being kicked out of my house, i'm on probation for embezzlement and facing a felony charge for which i go to court on the 7th.
This needs to stop, but i can't. I go crazy

Thanks for the warm wellcoming. Right now i stay various places, friends or the homeless shelter. It only has to be temporary until i can get into a sober living house. I know it will get better because it has to, but i spent sp much time running from my problems that i can't cope. If i stop using i get depressed and can't stay still.
It will get better in time. I know because i saw my mom give up H lime it was nothing. She had 14 years sober at her death.

Loosing your parents must be really rough. Be kind to yourself and keep looking for options for sobriety. I am an orphan as well since I am 33. SR has been like a family to me.
Glad you found us

You are not hopeless!! (But I do know how you are feeling).
What i've learned from my past experiences are...there were many times I felt hopeless to the point i wanted to kill myself, but...things always got better..always.
Life has a way of working itself out. It may not be an easy road. But it'll work out! Have faith!
