Sorry to read about your issues, Least. That must be excruciating. If you don’t mind me asking, is your back problems a relatively recent thing?

In any case, it makes your upcoming 13 years even more amazing 👍

It sucks that the docs haven't been able to help get the pain under control!

Your contributions are a wonderful asset to those who you have helped see around corners. You have done more good than you can know.

@least , you're the "most" to me and everyone here!
What you posted rings so true for me. I'm so grateful I found SR and all the wonderful people here.

@ least congrats on your recovery. I read that pain is a issue with you. Not to thread jack but I'm working on day 872 . Short back story I stopped drinking and using illegal drugs since 2012. During that time I began abusing my prescription pain medication which has brought me to SR. The 872 days is when I really committed myself to recovery to get off my pain medication. I still haven't touched a drop of alcohol but I've been dealing with pain daily. I got my good days and bad days but it's really wearing on me. What types of self care ideas do you do in recovery. I do ice baths, supplement, exercise try to eat healthier.
