My name is Mary. This is my first time using one of these apps. I am a 37 year old mother of two teens. My addiction started when I was about 19. My boyfriend actually spiked my drink with Meth. Got addicted right away. Then it became opiates, and last fentanyl. I have overdosed on it three times in a year. I’m just done with this fight. I want to be sober and happy again!

Hi Mary, welcome to Talking Sober and glad to have you aboard! The best thing about being here for me has been the realization and the notion that I’m not alone. We’re in this together and together we’re strong, and that made all the difference in failures before and success now. Hoping you will experience it too!
