Is there a NA group in your area?? Unfortunately they are faith based and tend to work more on spiritual problems then addiction but they have had success and any support you can get is better then none at all. Look in your phone book and see if they have any support groups for addiction...Good luck to you and hang in there, it's worth it.....Dave
Dave, can u please mark me as a friend so that we can send personal messages to each other.
Margo.
hopefully you can find people who understand for F2F time. Recovery can be lonely, just like addiction. Don't give into the feelings ... look up a meeting.... call somebody.
peace-
Thank you to those who responded to my comment. Just takind the time out to give me feed back is great. I really don't dig NA. I've been through that. It probably IS a good idea. I'm not down for hearing everyones war stories and shit like that. Although, somethin gotta give. I like the idea of an online group. To start out. Ty everyone.
Margo.
I know how you feel. I have been on mmt for 1 yr now and it seems like the only support I have are the girls in my group and my counselor, that's pretty much it. Since most of my friends don't understand what I go through they can't support me ya know. We all need support from people who can relate to us. That really seems to be the best support you can have. I am here for you if you want to talk.
Ty babidolli. I would be more than happy to be friends. I added u as a friend. I am also new to this site and I am trying to figure out how to send u a personal message.
Babidolli, you have to mark me as a friend in order for us to send personal messages to each other. Next to my avatar pic, mark me as a friend.
Hi Margo, Don't feel alone. There are a lot of us just like you out there. I am on suboxone & my Dr. gave me a site to help called HereToHelpProgram.com. I could personally use another friend to talk to so feel free to get in touch any time. I'm new to this site. Just found it a few days ago, but I think you can put invite me as a friend on this site.
Ty jencrabtree. I am so glad that I am not alone. I really do need some friendship at this time. Just as I said to babidolli22, I am also new to this site. I am having trouble sending personal messages. I am taking up your offer as a friend.
Hey Margo, I can so relate to the gotta start somewhere and being leery of NA meetings. I am Bipolar, along with trying to stop using opiates and life gets to be too much sometimes! I do not want to go out but have been wanting to talk to someone other than my shrink! I am new to this but will add u to my Friends and maybe we can talk sometimes.
TY
Hi cdon1. As I said to crabtree, and babidolli. I really need some freinds at this time. And I feel great that you are offering me friendship. I'll take it. I just have to figure out how to send personal messages.
once you add someone as a friend and they add you back, just under the add as friend text are the words, ask a private question and it is almost obscured, anyway, click on the person's avatar and look for those words , at this point it will say remove as friend and block, I think and then under that, you will see, partially obscured, ask a private question and then you can click that. They will have to click on profile to read the request, but that is how you do it.
Cdon1, please mark me as a friend. This way we can send personal messages to each other.

I am kind of weary about N.A meetings. I have attended many in my life, but always ONLY when I was in an inpatient program. I have never wen't to one alone. I have been in so many programs in my life. That is besides the point. I really don't know how I feel about going to a meeting. I have thaught about it. It would be a good way to meet people like me. At the same time, I have my doubts. I really don't like to sit there and listen to WAR STORIES, one after the other. That makes me want to get high. I also don't know how people will look at me in N.A. I am on SUBUTEX, and VALIUM. And I've had an experience where I have been discriminated against. I'll never forget it.
