Aa Meetings

Today i feel like s*** - my daughter caught me crying yesterday - and wanted to know what was wrong - i told her my depression was coming back - she said mum why dont you tell us so we can help - i couldnt speak to her the tears were streaming down my face just as they are now - i had to get onto antidepressents Efexor XL they are very powerful but anyway scince she knows a load is of my shoulder (still doesnt know of the addiction - have now dropped straight to 3 pills today - im sick anyway might as well get sicker before i can get better -

Anyway as reading through some postings on the board - some people are getting very sharp with each other about which way they decide to help themselves - let me tell you this i went to AA for my alcohol addiction - and had to leave - dont get me wrong there are some good people there - also there are now some people so addicted to AA it has taken over their lives - some have become very pompous etc - then you get the ones who you think are doing great - my drug supplier - is from AA that tells you what i mean - as a matter of fact 3 large drug hauls were found coming into this country and all three people involved were long term AA members - i know you are supposed to stick with the winners - but who really are the winners - It does no harm to go to NA or AA you do learn a lot i took from it what i needed to hear but i could not live in the rooms with some of the people there - i know noone is better than anyone else- but there a some who think they are and they are living the lie.

I got clean because i made the decision to do it - i learned about my addiction - from every scource i could - but i cannot help it i have an addictive personality and will eventually turn to something else which i have done now i will get myself clean from this too - dont know what comes next - mind you no addict shold kick themselves if they replapse it happens - they have to draw their strength from wherever they can find it - im am finding more on this board than i have with anny doctor phyciatrist mental hospital rehab facility etc - noone has any full knowledge why some people get addicted to some things and some dont
