    About Me

    How life/situations change, only a couple of weeks ago was writing a good/positive profile but having just read it back decided it's not me anymore, yes i'm rapidly on the road to nowhere constantly sabbotaging any sobriety/recovery I have embarked/enjoyed following detox, things are not good for me right now but won't bore anyone with detail, suffice to say I got a taste of life and living not so long ago and desperately want to touch/feel/taste get it back.

    Interests

    mainly my dog other than that reading, writing poetry, chatting, a successful recovery program.

    • Close Alcoholism

      started hitting mums drink cabinet bout 12yrs old by 15 was out drinking in pubs/clubs, during my 20's worked but couple of pints lunchtime, 2btls wine at night, by 30 was an alcoholic also in the grip of hard drugs, my road to recovery has been hell and i've still a long way to go, only wks outta detox. i struggle daily, hourly even, its hard.

      Treatments

      12 Step Program Working / Worked
      AA Meetings Too Soon to Tell
      so far so good, AA very supportive and enlightening. I plan to do 12 steps with a sponsor their as my day program does not cater for this, I almost always feel stronger when leaving but still but its still early days yet.
      Detox Working / Worked
      10 day detox for alcohol and heroin addiction, yes it worked and was suprisingly comfortable and having done 2 in past know what im talking about there i think!
      Librium Working / Worked
      as stated very safe, comfortable experience when monitored by prof.
      Naltrexone Not Working
      took one 25ml night before due to leave detox, had a bad reaction, felt like I was cluckin so wouldn't take the chance next day wen told 'it will either be in system and ok or you'll go into double cluck, thanks but no thanks
      Outpatient Treatment Program Working / Worked
      only been going 2 wks so too early to comment.
      Willpower Somewhat Helpful
      like i struggled to get outta a wheelchair following serious accident so i am stugglin in pretty nuch that same way now, perhaps this is worse. willpower and never forgettin where i would be going if i pick up again and that is a one way trip to hell in this life and the hereafter
    • Close Accidents

      push bike accident '91 initially paralysed from neck down, muscles contracted during physio, Q'will i ever walk again?'A'put it this way jayne sometimes people in your position suprise us' wot position i asked myself chart read 'spastic paraplygic', thro' self medication gradually taught myself how to walk again to present day, still aches and pains but bearable, limited mobility, CT6 CT7 damaged ie hands quite deformed, cant run etc.

      Treatments

      Physical Therapy Working / Worked
      only went once as hos conveniently failed to tell me bout cab collect, no doubt financial, found it embarassing, difficult, hard to travel by bus so didnt go back.
