Jasmine,
I don't exactly find those meetings to be THRILLING, either. But try to keep going. It truly does work (at least I think so). Also, try and stay busy. Find something to do, you know what I mean? Cook something, Eat something, or do something you really enjoy. I use to listen to tons of music before all the drugs. I quickly discovered that I lost interest in music while on drugs. Still not sure why, but now that I'm clean, I listen to it every chance I get. It gets that "happy" chemical going in your brain. Your body just needs to remember how to make it, you know? Hope that helps:)

Ditto Rachel REB.... the meetings are free..... keep taking your body there, your mind will follow. There's always something you can learn, whether you buy the program hook, line, and sinker, or not. For me, at least, it's better to be around people than isolate, and better to be around people who know what I'm going through. Raise your hand, introduce yourself, tell 'em you don't want to be there but you want to stay clean.....guarantee you'll see some folks nodding. God Bless, M.
None4ME,
Yes, I do need to actually STAND UP at the NA meetings, but I'm terribly shy and look like I weigh about 25lbs dripping wet right now. I was always too thin, but now I look just plain sick! Doesn't that sound silly? Well, that's the truth. But I know what you mean about getting out of the house and being around others who know what you are going through. It works, I don't know HOW exactly, but it does:)
