Dear Atoz,
Welcome to this wonderful board and forum, respectively. I joined this site toward the end of July, and it is been invaluable.
This forum has a huge amount of factors involved that can help anybody that is dealing with addiction. There are so many people here, people that bring different experiences to help and compliment others' experiences. Another valuable asset is that, no matter what time of the day or night, you can come to this site and read the many inspiring posts. Not only can this be relaxing, but it offers all of us support. Support that we all need. Support, as you said in your post, that can help you get through the day.
The way you speak of your wife and daughters was, in your words, beautiful. When you have family that needs you, just as you need them, the incentive to stop using, detoxify, and begin recovery is priceless.
You wrote that you are in a tremendous amount of physical pain? I've been through 18 operations, withdrawal, and I still have chronic pain due to nerve damage. Is there anything that I can help you with? Although neither I, nor others, may have all the answers, I think that the members of this board can help, support, and inspire you through this difficult time.
One again, welcome! My thoughts and prayers are with you, Atoz.

ATOZ,
I just wanted to take the time to Welcome You and to let you know that you are definetly in the right place..
I have only been on THIS board for a short time,but from day 1, I knew I was comfortable here and was able to say anything , and not be judge.. That was VERY important to me because I was so fragil at that time I was like Glass, and one Harsh word could have just shattered Me.
Originally,when I was first posting the amount I was using was tremendous.(for me anyway), and I knew that I needed to try to stop using..I also knew from reading other peoples posts that this was the place where I could be totally honest with myself and everyone here,about what exactly was going on in my sick mind and just being able to do that, at first was inspiring, and it was then that I began to find some hope deep down inside of my soul. The Soul that that had become so Black and filled with dispare.
I find myself reading these posts and posting almost every night,I no longer feel totally alone out here, and I feel that I am a part of something . Something Huge and Wonderful..and I have not been a part of anything in many many years.
Well I could go on and on,but I still have much reading to do.
Just know ATOZ that you are NOT alone and that you are a part of a Wonderful Caring Family. and that thought hopefully will open a window for you so that you will be able to see some light..
My Thanks to All of you..
I doubt if I'de have ever gotten any better had I not found you..
Love and Hugs
