Welcome
You can do this. Don’t drink or use today. Redirect your actions. Change your routine. :unicorn:

Hey BJM we were given a list of organizations with numbers, but during our time there we find our own Support ppl during AA/NA meetings we attend ppl to call. Plenty of other tools Affirmations, positive self talk. Organization skills, heaps of group sessions. Time management…just woke up cant think of what else. Left Rehab 3 months ago.

The pictures are truly heartbreaking. I have a hard time not crying. People trying to just survive and animals have no way out.
:sweat:
