Hi guys...

Hey everyone...just popping in to say hi to all my good friends here on the forum. I miss you all and think often of you and how this forum changed my life. I am doing well, still clean and going strong. I feel better then I have in years. I have energy, natural energy, which is something i havne't had in years as well.

To all new peeps. My name is lisa, I have been a member of this forum for about a year and half. My DOC was Oxy Contin, in which I used to be able to take about 10-15 80's in one day. My dr. told me I should have died with the amounts I could take. I lost my husband to Oxy's two years ago, and with the help of this forum, I have finally been able to quit.

Well..to everyone struggling with their own addiction, I pray for you all. In my eyes, and from my own experiences, addiction is one of the worst things that could happen to a person. It takes a hold of your life and literally turns it inside out. Not everyone is strong enough to overcome it. And I pray for everyone enduring their own addiction or someone they love. Good luck to all..

Lisa

Thanks so much. I really appreciate it. I try to get on here as much as I can,. and I find that I have gone back to lurking... Now  that I am sober, I have let so much go that I am swamped everyday trying to get my life back in order. It is amazing what chaos we let happen to our lives while in active addiction..

Anyway, thanks Giz..I will be here more....

Hey girls..

Cath..I miss you too. I truly do think of each of you all the time. And i wish I could stress to anyone new here, that this forum has all the potential in the world to help battle addiction. Before this forum, I was struggling with sever addiciton and the loss of my husband. I thought there was no end in sight. And NO ONE knew of my problem. Then I came here and met so many of you who had the same problems and some of the answers I so desperately needed. So I hope you are well to sweetie..and I will be here more often...promise!!

xoxox. Lisa..
