I thought all this right here is for people with all type of addictions….to help and support each other in every way in every situation. No matter how they would fk up. After all everybody here been thru some s**t. But then when I DID IT AGAIN…. y’all was like…WE DON’T WANNA SEE YOU IN THAT FCKN STATE. Like…. GET THE FK OUTTA HERE type of vibe.
Y’all just need to kiss each other a**es or what? Like….ohhhh you’re doing sooo goooood. But when someone fk up is more like… BYE. WE DON’T WANT YOU HERE.
So yeah. I really appreciate that. I thought I can count on people here. Instead I came back to old habits. Spend birthday alone in really really sad state plus some… Which y’all don’t wanna hear about. OBVIOUSLY.
Right….
Have a good one everybody!
I wish nothing but the best for each and everyone of you!
Hi there. I just took a peek and looks like you’ve only ever made two posts aside from this one. One last summer which got lots of positive, welcoming comments. The second was when you said you “f^cked up” but you didn’t really elaborate. Just a photo and YouTube link (which many of us don’t click). On person wrote a reply/question, but aside from that, I don’t see anyone else saying you’re not welcome.
If you stick around, share more/elaborate on your struggles, I’m sure you might get lots of support. So many of us struggle, relapse, make mistakes etc. and are met with support, suggestions to get back on track etc.
Wishing you well.
I’m sorry you feel this way, I do not recognize this myself. I think if you share here (good ore bad) you will get loads of responses. But we can not read at a photo what you need, use ore ask. Give information and open up and you will receive.
It’s nothing personal. It is asked that you not post here while under the influence, unless it’s in the “seeking help” section. This is out of respect to other people here.
That’s not specific to you, its asked of everyone.
Welcome back. Part of the rules we all signed off on include not posting on the main forum when we are under the influence because it could be triggering to other members. We do have a space for conversations, support and assistance when under the influence, it is the Seeking Help category. Your thread was moved there. It is an opt in category, so moderators will send instructions on how to opt in to the category.
Over the years we found it could be very triggering to have people under the influence on the main forum. Having the separate, safe space can allow more support during a challenging time. Tho mostly we suggest folks sleep it off and come back when sober, since this is an abstinence based forum. We definitely understand that sobriety is not a straight line, one and done.
I hope this helps explain what happened to your thread. And I hope you will stick around and find support here. I know it can feel overwhelming at times. Wishing you all the best. We are all here for support and healing.
Wtf?? Your first post you were welcomed here with open arms and given support, your second was just a picture…..we ain’t mind readers, its also not down to anyone else wether you go back to old habits or not that is your choice and your responsibility, I dont know who or what your angry about but it shouldn’t be us here because yes as you stated, everyone is welcome here
I remember when you posted a picture of yourself intoxicated on the sober selfie thread. Does you it to be need explained why that was not supported?
As @SassyRocks mentioned there is a specific place for posts made while under the influence.
From what others have pointed out, your first post was met with welcoming comments. But, it doesn’t seem like you took the time to engage with almost anyone. Starting a dialogue and building a support network has been very helpful for me in my recovery journey, maybe worth considering implementing in yours!
I can’t speak for everyone, but I certainly would like to hear more about your experiences and am willing to listen to your struggles. My only ask is that if you do share here, that you do it sober!
Looking forward to hearing from you! My inbox is always open if you feel more comfortable talking privately. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need support!
Sounds you are in a rough place.
No need to lash out to people you never interacted with.
Your intoxicated post was moved to seeking help, sassy explained it above. no, we do not allow posting under the influence on the main forum for safety reasons. if you don’t like this rule, check your attitude.
I also recommend to re-check your post, this is not helpful but irritating.
Talk about what’s on your plate, share, but be civil. There are folks like me who react in a way you don’t want to be confronted with to unfounded, general accusations and lashing out to the community.
Hi Adam. I hear you. I can imagine how it hurts to feel let down by a community you want to rely on for support when you’re at your lowest. If you ever need to chat, I’m just a message away. I hope you’re doing okay.
