Hi my name is Leanne and im 34 days clean from Cocaine and weed. For the the last 26yrs I’ve used pretty much every week. I have just finished a 28 day rehab journey and I feel amazing. Ive done a lot of soyl searching over the last 4 weeks and come to realise my childhood trauma was my kicker. I can wait to continue my new life. So anyone from Perth Australia reach out . Xxx

Congratulations on staying sober, you must feel amazing.

I quit weed back in 2022, one of the best things I ever did. Stick with the sobrierty, it gets better.

This community has been really helpful with my current addiction (PMO). It’s really good and supportive here.

Welcome.
