We all know that sometimes there is DRAMA. As well some people don't get along, and that's okay. People are all different that is what makes life exciting. We are all here for the same reasons and that is help. You all know that I had to go away due to a family emergency. I learned a very important lesson when I was gone. That is I need this broad !
I get my drive, ambition, hope, and determination to be clean and sober. I have met so many wonderful and special people here. Today some of you helped me trough one of the worst days so far of my recovery. I honestly don't think I would have gotten trough today without them. They are not the only ones that have helped me. It seems to me that in some way, may it be big or small that everyone on this broad have helped me and others too. When I think about where I would be without you all, I know for a fact I would still be using. I also know that I would not have even considered quitting Hydro at all. I am using Sub. for my treatment. I never even knew that there was an outpatient help for an addiction problem. Until I found you all. I love coming to this broad it is my safe place, where I can be honest and open and just be Marina. The point to this post is that love and support for people like us is more powerful than anything our lives will and can throw at us ! I feel that everyone here is my online family. Just know that I NEED EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU !
HUGS TO ALL OF YOU !
Marina, that was wonderful. I have only talked to you a few times and you have before, in the past given me words of help. And im sure that they worked. I have been following your story today> I did not post to you because i know nothing about the SUB thing. I dont even know what it is. But if you have found something that works, then by all means, keep up the good work. The lifes we have are all hard and everyone understands something different about each of us. Thats what makes this board helpful to us. Not to mention the fact that i have made some very dear friends along the way.
Your words are great, and i think your great too!!!
Lots of Love and Respect, Christina (friend)

Hi Marina-
I actually joined this board in the beginning of August (had to re-register due to computer problems).
I totally agree with you. Everyone here has been a great help to me. I dont know where I would be today without them. I've been clean, relapsed again, and again - everyone stood by me, even when I didnt have faith in myself anymore - they did and they made me strong. Who would of ever known that my life (really) could be in the hands of basically total strangers - however, all of these strangers have become to feel like family. What a fantastic group of people we have on here now, everyone is so willing to help each other and truly cares for one another.
I know that I am truly inspired by ALL of you and am proud to be part of this board.
Thanks for your post, Marina, and all the best to you in all that you have recently been through.
Love,
Marie

Marina I really don't know where I'd be if I didn't find this spot.And I know this may sound strange but I feel a LOVE like family love here.Yes there is drama but at the end of the day there is alot of hope caring etc,I hope you keep doing well mj
Marina,
feel the same way as you.I am sure there are newcomers that read some of these posts and think to themselves "Soap opera" but there is a lot of wonderful and supportive people on this board.It does help me daily stay focused on being totally clean again one day.It also takes my mind off of wanting more pain pills.I think ALL of you are great and it is nice to know that I am not alone and there are people out there in the world that can relate to my feelings. It is so hard to talk to people that have never been in this situation because they just think it is so easy to quit but we all know how much of a daily struggle this disease is... Mentally this board has helped me a great deal and I am very thankful for ALL of you!!! Have a great day everyone!! Rae
