I have type 1 diabetes, and have been diagnosed w/ type 2 bipolar.I have chronic back &neck pain from being thrown out of a car when I was 17. I'm also in recovery for drug addiction, I do believe in a higher power, and know that you are the only one who can change yourself.I have made huge changes in my life and know that there is always the oppertunity for growth. I would love to be able to start school and eventualey own an animal shelter.I'm trying to accept and find a way through all of this to get to myself.

    Give trixey a hug



    • Thanks

      From drap September 30

      Thanks for checking on me.I just sent you a hug but not sure what happened to it.Things are going okay my son has been living on his own for 2 wks or so and I'm just stepping back and waiting (praying ) for him to fail so that he will surrender.I realize I could be waiting along time but I'm going to wait.It's the holidays I'm afraid of facing.I don't think I'd celebrate x-mas without my son being in my life.It's months away however time just goes by way to fast.Enough about me how are you doing????

    • Hug

      From sdonig01 August 29

      Just a note that the deceiver is always present. I was back in Philly over the July 4th weekend (where I grew up and got my drugs even when I was living in Connecticut) and with over two years sober and what I thought a solid recovery, I found myself driving to the city looking to get high. G-d intervened and my brother-in-law called me and told me to come over and see the nephews. I turned around and that was that. The problem is why. I was kind of on an auto pilot. I still remember how bad it was and will be if I decide to use again and there I was. My sponsor yelled at me when I told him. He told me I need to work on issues I have with my mom who lives in Philly. I agreed. The obsession and compulsion has pretty much been taken away yet I found myself in dire straits. It was humbling and scary and made me very angry. We will have the fight of our lives on going for the rest of our lives. We have a choice now. There is a better way. Time to step up to the plate and take a swing. Prayers will be with you on your journey.
