My first day..
 

I've been an active IV methamphetamine user since 2011. I've tried numerous times to quit using, everytime I use, I always say I'm never going to do it again, or stop shooting and only smoke/snort/eat it. But that demon inside of me never fails to come alive. But today feels different (06/07/2014) I don't want to hide behind my meth monster anymore. I can't afford rehab, so I'm trying something new.. I'm just tired of being sick and tired. I'm only 29, I have to change how I've been treating my body, I'm pretty sure that I have hepatitis C.. there has to be something better than this life I'm living.. :wild

There is also a separate substance abuse forum down a little farther on the main page, but you are always welcome in Newcomers as well. Read lots and ask lots of questions- we are here to listen and help.
