Hello Everyone,

My name is Joe B. and I am An Alcoholic. My Sobriety date is 20th of May 1991 and for that I am grateful. I came across this forum the other day after I had just shared my Story with my home group and since they recorded it I thought I would share it with others in Recovery online. I hope you will get something from it.

My lowest point

feeds@yuku.com (atalossforme) — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 11:10:00 GMT

This is something I wrote in Feb. 2002 at the lowest point of my life. I thought it might be theraputic to share it...

Late at night when all the noise has dissipated, I lay here on the couch alone, trying to quiet my mind. It is then that I start to question how far out of touch with reality I really am. Or maybe its more how out of touch with myself I am. I feel so lost and so alone that it seems I am barely alive. My entire body goes numb. I feel frozen- I cant move, all i can...

He is coming home

feeds@yuku.com (lambert0628) — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 23:35:53 GMT

Hi everyone,
Chris is coming home today. I hope he is ready. Better yet am I ready. He seems to be doing well. I hope the stress of being back home does not take him back to the place where he was.
I still have my doubts that he is ready. So many lies, so much abuse. I am going to give him this one last chance, no more. He knows this and I have set my boundries.
My son seems to be understanding a little better, we have talked. He is getting ready for National Beta Club...

My story

feeds@yuku.com (debs4321) — Sat, 03 Mar 2007 03:02:43 GMT

Hi my name is Deb. I am a 38 yr old junkie. When I was 9 I was violated by my step-grandfather. When I was 14 I started playing around with alcohol and drugs. By the time I was 16 I had been kicked out of school, parents where divorced, and I was on my way in a downward spiral. Drugs and alcohol were my only friend. I hadn't tried Meth at that point. Acid, pot, and cocaine where my favorites. I moved from place to place doing as much drugs and drinking till the point of black-out. I did this...

Here's just another day in the life....

I am the wife to a meth addict. With the pain I suffer and punishment I have endured I wonder if I am the one with the problem or at least I feel I might as well be! We have been married for 7 years on Feb. 12th and we have been together for almost 10 years. When I met Jim he was the most beautiful, confident, gentle man I ever met! We were both "partiers" to say the least but we had different substances of choice. Jim only did meth once in a blue moon, usually when he came to...

Firstly, because i use a cellphone each post can only have 450 characters, i think i'll need more so i will probably have multiple posts! Here goes :-) i relapsed today after 6mo clean, after 7yrs heavy using. I will pick myself up and give my Recovery another go til i get there. This is how i got here: My father was a drug user, it was normal, i grew up around it, drugs were always there, they were no big deal. My parents split up when i was 11

this is my sad story

feeds@yuku.com (llsnwtsn) — Tue, 13 Feb 2007 10:48:15 GMT

i'm a 36 yr old meth addict with an addictive personality and the mindset of wanting it all and wanting it yesterday.i'm a mom of a 17 yr old daughter that, i pray daily, makes better choices than i did. i lost my 4 yr old son about 10 yrs ago. thank god that i wasn't using then, i couldn't have lived through it if i would've been using at that time. i never met my father and from the information i got he denied even being my father. the step father that adopted me thought the best way to...

Hi - I'm Penelope, the mysterious moderator who doesn't spend enough time here to merit the title "Moderator."

I celebrated 3 years clean on January 18th, 2007. I was thinking about the past three years this morning, and thought I should write these thoughts down before they vanish...

Becoming an Addict-Planning and Beginning

feeds@yuku.com (TnSkye) — Wed, 15 Nov 2006 09:36:18 GMT

Becoming an Addict

I won't tell all about my childhood.

I will tell you that at 10 or 11, my friend and I tried to become "addicted" to tylenol and Halls cough drops.

I will say that at 12 I wanted to die in my sleep, I prayed constantly for it. At age 14, I researched and planned my death and even left notes telling my parents how miserable I was and that it was not "just a phase I would outgrow."

Obviously, I never went through with any of...

No one beat me as a child. My mom may have dressed me funny as a little kid, but she was there, and so was my dad. I was nominated for prom king, performed in school plays, lead the band, had a lot of fun and and sold pot to my friends. I graduated a top 5 college in the traditional 4 years, got traditionally married to a sweetheart and bought a traditional house to start a new family with the 45k salary of my cush consulting job out of college. I never used drugs because I didn't like my...
