Hi All

Hers a pasted copy of my MODERATION statement that fuelled so much debate.
Your right Lisa it is a medical fact that addiction is a diease (how ever you spell it lol) but i think we all are different within that diease and for many moderation is not an option but for a larger number it is. I believe for us lesser addicts we can re-train our mind into not abusing any more. I still take pain pills on occasion for my arthritus but i dont abuse, i have learnt the hard way. My mind is now more aquipt to deal with life. maybe im just lucky or that my hard work as paid off for me who knows. all i know is i will never let myself get into a situ where im so dependant on pills again. My own personal opinion is the longer we say we have a diease the more deafest it is. i would much rather say i have a problem and can try to overcome it. But like i said addiction like all things vary. some people have a addictive nature me included in that so i had to learn moderation.hope your well jaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hey Jacky,

Just thought I would say hello, you are probably in bed now? Has to be real late there. Hope you enjoyed the day.

Love,
Liz

Do you ever sleep? lol. What time is it there?

I think the difference with you, Jacky, is that you have legitimate pain issues that you have to address. No addict should have to suffer needlessly. I also think you are unique in that you are vigilant in your desire to not go back to a place you were before.
I believe there really are exceptions.
personally, I could never do pills in moderation. I would be off and running. I think we are all different with our circumstances. I also think you are one tough lady who is determined.
Some are sicker than others and I was pretty sick, lol. I hope your arthritis doesn't give you too much pain.
Love, Kat
