Anyone want to talk tonight?? It's late I know

Question

Hi, it's so late and I am so tired but I can't sleep.  There isn't much to read on the forum this evening.   Everyone must be tucked in early, and that is great.  So I will post and say I am listening and reading, and if anyone is there in need of support or comfort,  I'm it!

Peace to all of you this evening~

Glad you are on the forum this evening.  Welcome.  I dunno why I can't sleep actually think I am over tired. But I am tapering vic and quit takin my soma....that is what keeps me up I think.  I miss the muscle relaxer a bit...my body does. not my mind so much.

How are you guys doing>  From the UK eh?  This is amazing to me to be talking to someone overseas and just like that boom,  you get my message.  I grew up in the typewrter era so this is just incredible.

What are your stories or do you wanna discuss other things>  I am here to listen is what I usually say...if you are just staying up for me we should ALL just go read a book and rest our bodies and souls.

I am here to listen, but I really don't have to keep jabbering.  What is up with everyone?
Peace~

back in the early 1980s I had a battle with qualudes,a lot of people now days dont know what ludes are,so I do know a bit about addiction,over the years I have done a lot of defferent drugs but never seemed to have a problem quitting when i decided to,I guess Im very lucky that way,I thing after my addiction to ludes I learned to not let myself get in too deep

i always have been addicted to something and always wanted more.  one was always too many, a hundred not enough.  But over the years I have been functioning ok.  In fact, wonderfully for awhile, but in about a two-three year period I have really gone downhill.  I am taking way too many vics and just don't seem to care. I also have broke the bank, lost my marriage, self-esteem low, you know, if we could just spend all the energy in recovery as we do in addiction...the lies, the guilt, the tap dancing...we wouldn't choose to be this way.   we would turn the energy around.  That is what I am trying to do.  TODAY

creek the way i look at it is,if you lost a leg in a accident that is a major deal,if you have something happen that you can turn around that is a small bump in the road,I know it does not seem small at the time but it is,stand back and look at the BIG picture,I tell myself this to shal pass,If it is something you can change then it is a small bump,If it is something you can not change then it is a big deal,I too lost my wife to addiction,my bank is broke and the future looked bleek,now I am starting to heal,I just landed a great job,I smile now,If you would have asked me 6 monthes ago I would have told you my life was ruined,but it was just a small bump,not to take away from addiction but it is a small bump,focus and turn things around YOU CAN DO IT !
