Introduction

Hello,
I am addicted to oxy. I am scared. I went to a NA meeting tonight and told everyone that I was using again. It helped to get the secret out, but no one spoke to me after the meeting. I feel invisible, but I feel better. But I do not understand. What is wrong with me? No one sees me, but God.

Welcome, anglenot! I'm an alcoholic in recovery. While I can't relate specifically to oxy, I can certainly relate to addiction. You aren't alone here on SR. You'll get plenty of support from others who can relate and care. Please stick around and keep posting.

Thanks for responding. It feels good that there is someone out there somewhere. I am so alone.

Are there any other meetings in your area you can try out? It took me four or five meetings before I found the right fit for me. I had the same experience as you at one, and other less-than-ideal experiences at others. When I found my current home group, it clicked immediately, and the fellowship keeps me wanting to go back. Maybe trying some other meetings, if available, would be worth your while.

Hello

Yes, I know thats how you have to do it. But it still takes me back.. I just have to figure out how I can relate.
