Hello my dear frienRAB :wave:

I feel like it's been forever since I have posted anything besides a reply on someone else post.... So here goes!

Things seem really overwhelming right now. I am drug free but the cravings are still here and I have been fighting a lot of depression and anxiety lately. Life has changed a lot lately and I am sure with the added stress that is why my body is reacting this way. It seems so much easier to just use but I know that is so completely wrong! So I am not using. I sleep a lot now.... I think that is from the depression. It's not great for my marriage, I can tell you that much. I am seeing a counselor regularly and that seems to help me get things off my chest. I hope with more sessions under my belt it will really start to help me out. If I could just make the cravings go away that would be a huge help so I just keep praying that they stop!

I have been on here off and on checking everybodies recovery! I am so proud of you all! I really am. I miss you all like crazy so I just wanted to say hello and check in!!!!

I hope this message finRAB you all happy and healthy!
XOXOXOX
 
It is so nice to hear from you again. Life will always throw us curve balls and screw things up just when we get them straightened out. It just doesn't seem to fail. But, if everything were perfect, life would be boring. It makes us realize how good the good times are when they do occur.

The depression and anxieties in your life are probably contributing to your cravings. It sounRAB like you are taking the right steps to work through your situation by seeking help. Just remeraber to take each day at a time and just do what you have to do to get through the day.

You have been an inspiration to all of us with your dedication to the forum. We're glad that you can still stop in and help people with your advice. Get your issues resolved and your life will be so much better - especially drug free.
 
Hey D!

Thanks so much for your reply! You always have a way with saying something that really makes so much sense to me! Thank you.

Things will get better. That is one thing I know for sure. They always do. I just have to hang on and ride it out. Hopefully at the end I can say I learned something from it all.

I love that you are dedicated to helping the people on this site. It's just so wonderful. You are a good egg D... Never change buddy!
Hugs to you friend!
 
so nice to get your update S!
i know if i was in your shoes i would have some craving too. the stress of the family stuff and the finances is big triggers for us! i know for myself i have to get them out and talk about all the thoughts fears and feelings. you try so hard to be up for everyone else i do hope that you have someone who lifts you up, someone who can listen to the sad, and frustrated side of secrets.
well we love and need you here!!!
keep us updated darling girl!
