Are you a recovering addict? I was just wondering......!

keep going strong! look forward to your 1 year! I got chocolate chip pancakes for my 1 year @ school!. and I'm looking forward to whatever my 2 year will be!

maybe you could write!.
do you have a sponsor!? If your struggling-maybe give her a ring (idk what time it is where you are-but its 2 am here) but sponsors are cool with that!.

I have a brother that was recovering for 9 months and a sister that is recovering for 22 years , and is now a therapist herself!. I think in observation that the 9 to 10 month period is hardest, judging also from my brother!. Don't look back now, move ahead!. helping others would be great for you now!. My brother is almost dead with it, he can't even walk from malnutrition, it s so sad, i had him down here last week and tried to detox him, we made 3 days and he was begging for beer, so i got him a few beers and then it started him wanting gin!. I really tried to help him and wanted to, I was giving him klonopin for the shakes and it really helped him sleep and he had a good appetite!. But soon as that one drink of beer he wouldn't eat and refused the meds!. Wanted to go back home to va!. so i took the poor guy back!. If you could see him how badly he looks and thinks at 55 years old you would never turn back!. he looks 80, can't take a shower, can't stand up long enough nor can he step over in the shower!. I hate to see anyone that way but we all think, i'll never be that bad, but it creeps up on us!.
I am an occassional drinker, only beer or wine, I do watch myself since i have alcoholics in my family!. I only drink socially and that is not often!. I know alcoholics cannot do that, it's terrible! But I can have fun without it and you will learn that also!. Take care, we are all pulling for you!Www@Answer-Health@Com

The absolute best way is to believe in christ, and have faith!. If your testimony is strong, you will know it is wrong, and try very very hard to stay away from it!. Porn addicts can even see porn when having faith and go away from it in a snap because it is way easier!. Also, keep yourself entertained, because the slightest thought of it could kill you over!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hello fellow addict in recovery! I'm fresh out of rehab and fresh into sober living!. Is this not the hardest sh!t ever!?!!? Yet at the same time the descision should be so simple,shouldn't it!? Remember what brought you into recovery!. Keep your rock bottom memories close!. Stay humble as to how you got here!. How much have we given up!? How much did we p!ss away!?!?!? Don't lose sight of how hard life gets when all you are trying to achieve is copping your next high!. Is it worth giving up an amazing 10 months for!? You are doing an amazing job!. Remember-this too shall pass!.!.!.
We always have another run in us, but do we have another recovery!?
Best of luck :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
