It's been a long time ...
 
It's been a while since I been here. I was sober and clean last Christmas, I do remember that much. I just wanted to come back and say thanks to everyone who was there for me.

I am still trying, but my f*ck, it's hard!!

Hi guys, nice to hear from you. Things sort of spiralled out of control the beginning of the year, and I couldn't cope with life, so I turned to the things that have always helped me cope.

However, things have been better for a few months now, but of course I can't stop once I start.

Long story short, there's no money left! I've got us nearly in £2000 debt because of my drinking and pills taking money that should be spent on food and bills. I'm a single mom, so there is not that much to go around already.

Thanks for being there for me. I've never been in debt in my life you know!!

I'm sorry you're up against it, LB, but you know you always have mates here.
What are you doing recovery wise right now?

You got that right. I have just over 90 myself this time. Keep coming back. It's what I hear...a lot! You're loved and you're worthy of a good, clean life. Keep moving forward Lost!

Not a lot, feel a bit battered and dazed at the moment! Using the pills I got left to get off, should take a few more days - I'm thinking I should probably go back to AA, I haven't been to meetings since about March this year.

I ran out of alcohol last night, so today may as well be my first day without, and then there is a meeting tomorrow night. I keep talking myself out of it.

I give up ... how do you make a blog? My brain doesn't work!

Dee74 12-07-2010 11:36 PM

I hope you follow through with something LB - it's not a nice place to be spinning your wheels, ya know? :hug:

as far as blogs go - if you click the blog link on the blue toolbar above us @ the top of the page here....there should be a range of options on the left hand side of the page that opens up - click 'post to your blog' and go from there, I think?...

Hey Losty Very good to see your post ! You were there for me when I was getting off the opiates.I won't forget it. Its been 2 years and two months for me . Can't say I am clean and sober cause as most everyone knows. I drink a little and smoke some weed. I would be better off without, but I am managing it. Kepp trying its not how many times you fall down, but how many you get up ! All the best to you.

lostbutterfly 12-08-2010 11:43 PM

Read all the posts again now I'm less fuzzy and so grateful to everyone for being so welcoming.

Fluey and grumpy (sounds like two of the 7 dwarves from Snow White), but on the right track.

Well done vicodan - I remember your struggle. Really proud of you. If I could drop the pills, I would be so happy just to get rid of that one side of things.

Thanks for the blog advice Dee - gives me a place to right random rubbish without cluttering up the forums!
