• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Some of you read my post about the benzo w/drawal today. And you group of people got me to the doctor. Although, it did not go as well as planned, I am sure that because I have turned my life over to the Lord, it went the way it was supposed to. I will be weaning off of it at a quicker pace than most, but at least it won't be this bad again when they are finally gone. I am going to search fearlessly to decide whether I am an addict. I hope that you all will pray for me that God will uncover anything that needs to be accepted. I am so grateful that I found this sub-thread. What an amazing group! :thumbsup:

I didn't really say anything in your last thread because I don't have any experiance with your drug of choice. But I want you to know that god will take you, and heal you, and never forget that EVERYTHING that is happening, as long as god is in control, is moving toward a greater good. You will be fine, use your withdrawls as a reason to never use again, because a day might come when you think it wasn't that bad, tha's what we do best.

princess, you're in my prayers.

I second what BigChris said - if and when you find yourself thinking that maybe it's okay to use again, make sure you play the tape out to the end. It's easy to remember the euphoria and forget about the wreckage.

And in case you haven't yet, I suggest you find a local NA meeting.
