We've all been there! This is the one thing I hope we will never forget. I truly miss the "oldtimers" I met when I came here crying for help. They talked me down and were firm but caring! There was Beachtowel, the Rock, Fladdict, Addicted Lovers, Mariyah2, Minnie11, 1911, Mangee, CATUF, Vicaddict, Oxysbliss, Creek, Addcited2Lortab, TINK!!!, and so many others that escape me but had so much to do with helping me at my weakest! The point some of us were trying to make is that posts are getting lost and pushed down to the bottom, people that are crying out for help, and some people just throw a random post or tow a=at them and say they always welcome newcomers! I am not on as much and I try to catch up and have learned to weed through the many many posts from these exclusive individuals to one another. It's not just one, but so many! We all talk to certain ones more than others, but I never saw anything like this when I started. People were ALL inclusive as we all have tried to be currently, only to be bombarded by the inane bantering back and forth and losing those posts of "newbies" who really need support!
Mom2Rachie, I wholeheartedly agree with what you said and FLaddict, you truly are an inspiration and I don't mean to make your job more difficult, but if Medhelp cannot see what is really going on here and that these people keep bringing this up over and over (just look at the most recent posts!)then that's really a shame.
Good Luck to all who are struggling and there really is a better life sober! This forum was so instrumental in helping me and others and I hope everyone can get what they need!
Peace,
Marcie:)
