    • Close Cocaine Addiction & Recovery

      I have used crack and alcohol to get over feelings of loneliness and boredom for the last 6 years. however it only became a problem around 2 years ago when i had a relationship breakdown since that time i have had a number of losses, father dying and more relationship breakups. Even though i had finished most of the relationships i still find it extrememly hard to be on my own. The last boyofriend but one introduced me to cocaine whilst we were drinking indoors and i used it occasionally.

      Treatments

      Narcotics Anonymous (NA) Somewhat Helpful
      I find that i don't suit the steps i do like some of the statements. I am in a dilemma to carry on with going as i do have the occasional drink. I feel pressurised into stopping drinking. I do not have an allergy to drink. I agree with the malady, discontent etc. But i feel that therapy will help. Now after some help with crack use I am able to drink once a week without the urge to get drunk. My problem is crack cocaine and it is very addictive for me.
      Prozac Working / Worked
      prozac is helping me to get over the depression whilst i have some counselling. I am also hoping to get on a day programme not residential as i have a child at home. I have been on prozac for two years but it was not helping because i did not take it due to my chaotic lifestyle whilst on drugs. Now that i am sticking to taking it regularly i feel much happier and feel no need to get a high from crack.
    • Close Eczema

      I have had eczema since i was around 2. It was a lot worse and i had it really bad on one of my hands during primary and secondary school. I also had it behind my knees. Now i just seem to get it on my feet and ankles. It is so sore sometimes and it is hard not to dsuccumb to the scratch itch scratch itch cycle.

      Treatments

      Betamethasone (Topical) Working / Worked
      yes it worked
      Hydrocortisone Not Working
      Oilatum Working / Worked
