Cocaine Addiction & Recovery Support Group
Cocaine addiction is the excessive intake of cocaine, and can result in physiological damage, lethargy, depression, or a potentially fatal overdose.

I vented this in my journal but not word for word. Anyone else relate to this?
I am a qualified health care aide, holistic massuse with massage table,accupressure certified, aromatherapy practitioner,hot stone practitioner, takeing a drug and alcohol counseling course. Have volunteered at many of the local non profit societies in my local (small northern region here in Canada) But cansidered a risk for hire!
I came out loud with my story to local papers, my web site, the stages I sang my music on about abuse, addictions, child sexual abuse, date rape, violence against women and all who are violated (no gender specification) I have leaned more towards the women at times but have evolved from that from hearing so many men at risk as well!
So the dilema is I am a risk! I was encouraged to share my story for inspiration to others, and yes you can volunteer any time! But NO NO NO we can not hire you. Encourage my voice but keep it away from our back yard! The system has it's cracks and dayum hello I am in one of them. But not too deep (have to keep a sense of humor and sense of faith in myself as well)With support!
I NEED A JOB!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I have since learned to be and activist and resister on abuse and addictions just a little softer :)
It may take moving or some time before I get work....or just start my business again!
Lables are harsh! No matter we are all connected. But I still feel annoyed hey?
Thanks for your response!
Thanks for the advice! I will keep that in mind LOL.

Clean today!
but seriously my experience is that it is better to let people get to know the person or me the employee before i share that i am an addict. even then i don't feel the need to share it unless i think it may help that person. Anonymity is a great thing.
sherose i wish you lots of luck on the job hunt. your Higher Power has the right one already picked out for you. keep the faith!
Face 2 face! You know?
