talking about things help.

Hello. my name is scott and im 32,i have had a alcohol and drug problem since i was 10 or 12. obviously it wasnt a problem to me then, it was a relief,as i was unaware of the impending doom that awaited me for many years. as i grew up i continued this path of self destruction with no explenation to my friends or family,i didnt care. i didnt care if i lived or died,alot of the time i i felt it would be my release. I never had any one i was comfortable with enough to talk too and the years driffted by with out any significance to me. i had deppression problems start to plague me and i felt at an end.i had never cared,why was i deppressed? maybe it was because i didnt want to be this way anymore.One day i was lucky enough to meet a nice girl who i felt my self with,i didnt feel i had to hide my pain inside and one day i told her when and why it all started for me,actually she asked me.she could see something inside of me that wasnt right.
Since then it has been much easier for me to talk with people and open myself up a bit more.my friends and family now have a notion of why i have been the way i was for so long.my relationships have become stronger for it.
Im not out of the woods yet but i feel im on my way,and if i believe in my self and my future there is no reason why i cant have the things in my life ive allways feared ill never get.
Well thats enough from me for now ive never actually said all that. i guess its easier when your just typing it out.
I hope this helps someone feel better. and believe in your self. i think thats all you need to believe in.
