Hello! I am Sheryl and I am an addict.
I don't reallly know what I am going to say right now.... I just need to vent... So I guess here goes.
I lost my job 1 week ago today.... and when I went to pick up my last check I found out that my check is now being garnished 100 dollars for child support.... Don't get me wrong. I am more than willing to pay for my boys! But now I have no job... and my bills just keep getting bigger.
I want to just forget! I don't want to deal with this! I am just so frusterated with life right now... and I don't even know what to do. :(
I am 45 days clean. And I want to stay that way... but I just don't know how to react... or.... I don't know. I am just so lost right now.
I hope there is someone out there who can understand... I just need some wisdom here.
Sheryl

Hi Sheryl,
You doing the right thing, let it out , share of what is going on. Please make to a f2f meeting also and share. Call your sponsor and if you do not have one, time to ask someone. Be in touch, ask help and you will find people to share this time with you and help you get through. There is nothing that use would make better, just worst.
Even if you have no faith, pray. They told me to pray and I did not want to because I was mad and not trusting any god. But I heard to sugestions and did as was told. To my surprise it worked.
Things will get better. Do not lose it now, stick around and wait for better times. Another job will come, things will settle.
By now, it seems acceptance is the key.
All that I am saying are things I was told and time prove to me to be right ones.
I am not an addict to drugs other than alcohol, but more I talk to people I see the program of recover is very similar in AA and NA.
Pray, be in touch, go to meetings, make it for another 24. Simple programs to complicate people
You are in my prayers,
((((Sheryl)))

Hello sheryl,
My name is Julie and I can remember feeling the same way you did,(quite a few times) and when I shared about it and I did not pick up it made it that much easier to get through my trials and tribulations each time. You cant stop life on life's terms but you can put people in your life to help you get through it. I hope you are doing well.
