growing up, i never really noticed his problem.
but as i got older, my mother would confide in me.
he was going through a 24 case of beer every 3 nights.

Abuse Cycle Becomes Clear

When I reflect on my life I can see clearly the dramatic and negative impact that drugs and alcohol have had on me, and that it's a cyclic patten that comes and goes over the years. It happens with both drinking and drugs and I've finally started to map out what my pattern is and realize that the only thing in the way of my full recovery to sobriety is me.

Every time I get ...

How do I help a heroin addict?

I'm back again begging for advice. I really don't know what to do, I've loved him for 10years and I'm not a user at all and have not ties to that community apart from my estranged partner. He's begging me for help but does nothing to help himself. What do I do? I'm not sure if he's now injecting in his neck

feels like an upcoming relapse - any ideas?

Honseltly I'm not sure where to put this. Substance abuse is not the only problem but it seems like the source of everything, so... here's my story.

New on these parts of the forum...

Hey there guys,

I usually am over on the BPD forums but I thought I would post my inquiry here since my question is mostly a substance abuse problem and not a BPD thing (although the two are quite possibly related for sure).

Basically, I gave up weed, but instead of smoking weed I find that I do other things to get high like mixing alcohol with sleeping pills or abusing my ativan and mixing ...
