Unhappy New here

Hi,
I'm new here. Not actually addicted to anything but I think I could become that way soon. I'm bi-polar and I have a pretty traumatic past. I'm in a relationship with someone I know cares about me but I've hurt him and I don't think that he'll stay. I started drinking, well I don't know if that's the right term...I don't usually drink but a few days ago I drank practically all day and I was on medication: painkillers, Gravergol and Ponstan Forte, antibiotics; Noroxin and a tranquilliser; Frisium. I passed out several times and that scared me because I couldn't resist the compulsion to drink and take the Frisium at the same time. I'm pretty depressed these days and I'm just looking to talk to some one who'll understand. I'm seeing a psychiatrist...going on meds for the bi-polar soon.

Hi, I am glad you found SR. There are lots of us going through the same type of situation. Dealing with our pasts and fighting for our futures is a full time regardless of what the addition (or potential) may be.

You will find amazing, strong, and caring people here to help you get through.
