Can I just ask everyone 1 question that some might find a bit inappropriate but is everyone suffering from drinking addictions or is anyone here to do with drugs aswell or just by it’s self ??

Hi Dan! Welcome to TS!! :heart: This is a great community with tons of support. There are people all over the world, so it’s always active. I don’t think your question was inappropriate. You will find people here with all sorts of addictions… alcohol, drugs, porn, self harm, etc. You name it, you’ll find someone here recovering from it. If there’s something specific you’re looking for, you can use the search bar at the top to look for it. If you don’t find it, feel free to create the topic. :slightly_smiling_face:
Keep up the hard work!!! We are here!
