Why????

Why is it that when someone makes mistakes and then askes for help...
Or when someone talks about there life probloms......
Or when someone has a bad day...........
Or someones wife/husban is abusive........
Or the dog is out of control............
Or there not getting anyone to write them back........
Or when they deside to help others.........
OR WHEN THEY BECOME MY FRIENDS.......
OR I VALUE THERE OPPINION...............
OR WHEN WE NEED TO VENT............
Or when.......
Or when....................... YOU GET THE PICTURE...............
Does someone , or a few people have to come knocking in and tell them to go away??????????????/
I miss sammy alot. She reach out when alot of other people wouldnt.
I will miss mitzy/jasmine alot if she desides to go......honey, you may have you far share of probloms, but you make people feel good with your words none - the - less!!!
And i love hearing about Danny's jokes and fun things he has to say. And regardless of this being about addiction, he's aloud to write about his probloms!!!
That may be the reason he started to use again in the first place. And i for one will miss him horribly. Besides...didnt we ask to hear his story of life in the first place???
If any one eles decides to go i think i might not get through this process of getting clean.
Maybe the MEETINGS help some people and maybe having friends to help, help others and maybe just talking or writing help some of us.
But for me , its this board and the people that i have met along the way. Thats all i have. PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
So for those of you that go around saying that your way is right....or this way is right....just remember that its you that it was right for and not all of us.

Your Friend, Christina
Hey Christina,
Don't get yourself all worked up. Nobody is leaving the board. Yes Sammy left but maybe oneday soon she will read all these posts and see that we all love her and miss her. Plus, we all valued her opinion and it helped a lot of us see life in a different light. As for Danny, he is not going anywhere. So what's up with you? Are you off pills? Did you call your doctor's office to see if he would help you? What's up? Talk to me,Rae
Christina,
Where did you go?
Hey Rae....
Im not getting worked up. Not even breaking a sweat.
Im just so sick of the drama that starts on this site!!! I want to talk and chat to friends, only to find out there not here anymore! But i guess life goes on. Just upsetting thats all!
No i havent called the Dr. yet. It happened before x-mas. Like 5 days before. And i thought that it was the end of it. I thought that i would go through the w/d's and be o.k.."cured"!!!! Guess i get that for "thinking"
He has no intrest in me. He dosnt care. He just said "I cant help you anymore"
So in the mean time im finding other ways to try and stop on my own. Well, not "alone" exactly....I have you and alot of others on here to help me through it i guess.
I just dont know who's next!!!! Who's gonna get slammed and hit and want to leave next???
My point is that "i need all of you. And you, Rae, have been realy helpful."
Sometimes you just make me smile. The whole...."Dont get worked up" thing made me kind of chuckle. Im not realy getting worked up at all, just sad!!
I hate loosing friends. I dont have alot to begin with.
Your Friend, Christina
Hey you made me smile to when you said you weren't even breaking a sweat.LOL Your funny. Anyway, so do you have pills to wean down or are out and withdrawling? If so how many days has it been?
Dear Christina,

Wow! I don't know how I missed Sammy going. I just thought she was busy with the holidays when I didn't see her post! I sure hope she comes back too! She truly is a sweet, wonderful woman. She helped me with my son's addiction problem tremendously as did several others. I don't want to start naming because I'm afraid I'll leave someone out. There have been many including you! And I'm sure there will be many more wonderful people coming to this board. I was very pleased to see that Jasmine/Mitzy posted! Yes, you may have to accept some help from some new people on here, but you will find, as I always do, that there are a LOT of blessings from new friends too. Give the rest of us a chance to help you. We're here for you too! God bless!

Love,
Susan
Thank you Susan, that was nice. Dont know how in the world someone like me could have helped you, but i guess someone learns something from everyone!
Im not saying for one min. that im leaving!!! Oh, no sir, you couldnt get rid of me if you tried. (lol)
All im saying is that the people that are wanting to or already have left, are the ones that have reached out to help me the most. There are a few that are left that i value and love and would love nothing more than to consider them andYOU my friends.
Its just hard to hear people getting writen to in such a manner. Its hard to beleave that anyone who walks a day in our shoes could be so darn right mean and nasty to the ones who have always been here to help and give encouragment.!! Even if the have no right to give advise(like me) its still nice to hear a few encouraging words from them.
Im sorry if this post sounded mean to begin with. It wasnt ment that way to anybody. Just my thoughts!!
Your Friend Christina
RAE....
I dont ahve all that many. About 8 now to be exact. But that should last a few days. And then if its not better....I have no idea what im gonna do!!!
I have been going through little w/d's everyday. Im not sure if thats good or bad. Im hopeing that by the time they are all gone that i have gone through enough that i feel alittle better and can go c/turkey.
Your Friend, Christina
Hi, Christina

My 29 year old son started onto drugs with pills and then went to heroin. He kept saying that he wanted to stop using but didn't do it. Then, when we didn't get him out on bail when he got into legal problems, he DID stop cold turkey. What I'm trying to say is that it's not going to be a picnic whenever you do stop using, but my son wished that he had taken some of my leads and got some of the county's aid to make him more comfortable in his detox then having to do it in prison. He had to come off his caffeine, his nicotine, his drugs, and his anti-depressant (they never gave it to him in there after my repeated calls) all at the same time. How cruel! But the bottom line is he made it and he now tells me he never would have come off of it if it wasn't for us leaving him in prison. You can't imagine how hard it was to do that to him! My thoughts and prayers are with you as you come off these pills. I'm proud of you and know you can do this!

Love,
Susan
