    • About Me

      Normal guy that has been through some tough times. Just moved here in Columbus from Arizona, and I don't know anyone and the weather is a trip, LOL. I am in a small city now in Ohio near Cincinnati. I have been in Rehab 3 Times and Out-Patient Clinics, and not to mention jail. I feel that now as I am trying to stay clean which has only been just over a year, btw the longest I've been clean sinse I've been like 12 years old. I also wanted to say I was in the U.S. Navy from 1993-1997. Don't ask don't tell. What a bunch of crap. I was every bit as capable as any other guy or girl that I was stationed with, and much more than some I worked with. I have met some really great people on here and they have helped me out so much. I am in a relationship. It's just rocky, at best.

      From BrianM Yesterday

      You are the best. Thank for remembering us up here in the Great White North. You know we love to torture each other but our countries are like close brothers. Fight a lot but love each other to death. Now you know I just had the colonscopy thing and it was nothin. The rest sounds like a lot so I will be thinking of you. If you are in any pain think of me that will make you angry enough to forget about the pain :).

      And as for the feeling sorry for yourself we are all entitled to that every now and then even if there are other people in worse situations. Keep me informed and I miss the insults!!!

      God Bless the troops of North America.

      Brian.

    • Close Gay Men's Challenges

      I am a recovering Alcoholic & Drug Addict, and I have been through some hard times, as well as Rehabs. Currently attending AA and doing the 12 steps. I have been to CA & NA but I like the 12 step approach, and that's my opinion.

    • Close Alcoholism

      I started drinking and using drugs at an early age. Like many others I thought I could handle it all. It wasn't until my pain became so great, and I was in and out of Rehabs that I decided to work the steps. I am not a Master of the program. but I am trying hard to regain my life. I also have a long history of drug abuse, and have been to various groups such as CA,NA, but I prefer the 12 step approach, just my opinion.

      Treatments

      12 Step Program Too Soon to Tell
      Started working the 12 Step Program a few months back, and I'm going to regular meetings, and I'm still a novice at all of this, so bare with me. The reason I put to soon to tell if 12 Steps are working is that I am still new at it, but it's great so far.
      Cold Turkey Not Working
      It just didn't get it for me, as soon as I'd feel better....well you know that story, and I have no willpower over something that controls my life.
      Outpatient Treatment Program Not Working
      Same as a Residential Treatment to me except I had more freedom, and it was court appointed, but that's a story in itself.
      Residential Treatment Center Somewhat Helpful
      It was somewhat helpful. I met a lot of people like me and we exchanged war stories, but I didn't work the program, and when I'd get out I'd start using as soon as something went wrong, which was everything, as as an Addict I believed everything went wrong.

    • Open Hepatitis C

      I was dignosed with Hepititis C in 2006 when I became very sick for no reason, and I went to a Liver Specialist and they did a biopsy and blood work and an Endoscopy. Well I found out for sure I had it type 1a and stage 4 Cirrhosis, plus Pancreatitis. They aren't gonna start me on treatment of Interferon,Ribavarin, as my liver could decompinsate and I could die so I'm just handing out. I contacted HCV through drug abuse, and of course alcohol, heroin and cocaine didn't help.

    • Open Sexual Abuse

      I don't really want to tell my story. I am just here to be supported. It's too painful to share with the whole world on here. I will talk one on one about it. It's awful.

    • Open Cirrhosis

      I was dx with cirrhosis when I found out I had hep c in 2006, but was ill in 2005 when I really knew something was wrong. I can't be treated for hep c, so they are just watching my liver & such. Sometime I get really sick and end up in the hospital. I am just living day by day and doing what I can to stay positive.

      Treatments

      Lactulose Working / Worked
      Lactulose....What can I say, I don't like it but have to have it.
      Lisinopril Working / Worked
      It's a blood pressure to help control varices.
      Inderal Working / Worked
      Another blood pressure pill to help with control of varices.
