thanks for having me

So..this is a first for me. I admit that I am a user of a chemical compound that has at least partially been the cause of some of the complete and utter destruction I inflicted on my life and marriage recently, and it's been my companion through the years whenever I needed to be more than I could. Thanks for listening. I'm all ears. I've got kids and an impending divorce and custody battle, and lost the rest of my family to trajedy last fall. Clearly I need a map with a route out of here.

Welcome. You are in a good place.

I was into alcohol. Are you into something else?

Time to stop fighting and surrender. WE can't drink or use safely, it's not for us. Know this deep in your heart. You can stay stopped, too!! There is hope and change on your horizon. Stick with us, it works to talk to others. We understand.

Glad you found SR!!
