18 month run this time..my girl passed n just couldn’t deal not making excuses
Just being honest
Welcome to Talking Sober Arthur. Hope you got a plan to stay sober and clean after detoxing. Don’t go it alone. Together we can do this. Wishing you all success.
Thank you so much
It’s a great day, Arthur! Really glad you’re here.
What’s great about today? You, me and all these other wonderful people here realize we don’t have to or need to use or drink anymore! Removing that want is what’s damn difficult… finding a program with the right groove can seem painful but it’s sure as shit less painful than the other program we were on!
Consider hitting a meeting? Some other healthy idea or just resting up?
You deserve all the happy & freedom from the insanity, friend. Please find what works & work it daily! See ya around.
Welcome to the community.
I suggest reading around and participating where you’re comfortable. There is a great group of really understanding and supportive people here. There is a daily check in thread you could check out where you can meet a good chunk of the most active members in one place and get a daily check in routine started. Another great one is the daily gratitude thread. There are also lots of just for fun threads to check out too. I’m glad you are here staying sober with all of us here today. I look forward to seeing you around here.
Thanks…im going to a meeting in a few alone ..its crazy how people say call me reach out n don’t answer.
For the first time I get it its on me
Thank u so much n ill definitely check it out
New meeting or one you’ve been to before? I’d grab a phone list anyway. Go through the whole thing if you’re struggling and if you get to the last name & no answer, go through it again. It can be depressing as hell, I so remember.
Early on I fucking called everyone on our list and no one answered. I finally called my brother. He listened and gave me hope & a reason to not get loaded.
Whatever it takes my friend-- whatever it takes
Text first and ask if you can call them. I know I never pick up my phone when it’s a number I don’t recognize because I think it might be a telemarketer.
I went to an AA meeting instead of na
But tomorrow im going to na just to purposely run into these dudes n pull their cards ..
Its crazy to me why would people say
Call no matter what just reach out
Then just completely ignore texts calls n
Not even respond smh its just crazy to me
These dudes kno my # ..we all got phones n we all do the same thing
We respond to who we want to n ignore who we want to
Welcome to Talking Sober. I’m sorry to hear that no one showed up for you when you needed them. Stay connected on here, there’s always someone around. Cute dog.

Have a goo day and keep going. It’s one day at a time for us all.
@Barber.508 first sorry for your loss!
There are a lots of good supportive people here from all around the world. So the light is always on! Stay Sober with us today!
Thanks..its crazy to me how strangers are more supportive than my so called friends
Thanks for the support
How are you doing today @Barber.508 ?
Im good…went to a meeting
Still going threw withdrawals left detox with a methadone habit..but gd
Sorry to hear you are still dealing with withdrawal but it’s really good you got to another meeting tonight. Were you able to get some new numbers for support when you need it? I don’t have any experience with methadone since booze and coke were always my go to’s so I don’t have any advice to give there but big congrats on making it through another day without your DOC. Just keep taking it one day at a time and keep reaching out here if you need us.
