You came to a good place Nevermind. Admiting you need help isn't easy, but it is the first step in getting well. ((HUGS)) Take a look around here at SR. There is a lot of info and support here. Keep posting, it really helps. Have you looked into a detox center or AA/CA meetings near you? I am saying a prayer for you.

Please stay by my side thru this, I don't want to do this alone. I never want to touch a mind-altering substance again. I am willing to do anything to stay away from it. I'm willing to learn for the first time.

First thing first, I have to admit I have a problem. I do.

I have to be at work at 8 in the morning and last night, I did a lot of coke and drank so many beers. I don't know if I can make it to work. I hate myself for being undependable but it is not me. It is the substances that I am on. I can save my life if I get off them now but if I keep going, I am going to die. It is that simple but that hard.


I know the truth, I just need to be able to stay sober.

I have looked thru here before but for the first time, I am seeing it in the terms of ME.

Maybe this is a step forward.

Yes it is a step forward.
You don't need do it alone.
Look for NA and or AA meetings in your area. They will accept you, support you, and guide you with the tools needed to get clean/sober and stay clean/sober.

It is something you can do. People find the answers and recovery every day. You will get through this as well.

Welcome Nevermind

You are taking a huge step by admitting your problem to yourself and others. SR is a wonderful place to start this opening. You can say or ask anything you need to here...there will always be someone who has shared your experience and will have some words of wisdom and support for you.

You've taken the 1st step in your recovery, by admitting you have a problem. You never have to feel this way again, for me , that way key to recovery. Hit as many meetings as you can, get phone #s,(and use them), and get a sponsor. NA saved my life, and continues to be very important for my recovery. I know how afraid you feel right now, and I want you to know, you're not alone. Hang in there and keep us updated, everyone here has been great to me, I know you'll feel the same.
