- Hi, I'm Deb and I'm an alcoholic. My sister in law was an intravenous heroin/cocaine user for many years. Fortunately she quit before she died. The problem is she took me to a meeting. She and her friend shared the chairing responsibilities. When I...
- My adult kids spend a lot time trying to know whether or not I've been drinking. It is so uncomfortable to be at a get together now. Frankly, it makes me want to drink and say screw it. They are only supportive if they are positive I'm sober. If my...
- I'll try to make this short.(good luck, hehe) I tried to commit suicide with pills and booze in April, went to rehab, came out, sober for 50days, tensions got to me and I self medicated. So my daughter said I can tell you slipped and I said yes,...
- to everyone in this group. I am in dire need of talking to people who understand where my head is at. I tried to hurt myself because of the dual-diagnosis viscious cycle of alcohol and depression. I have to stay away from alcohol or I will...
- Tues. 4/14 I attempted suicide but obviously it did not work. I was commited to a hospital which I have just left. I have to go to the outpatient Reach program in Bridgeport CT starting this Tuesday. I was wondering if anyone here has been to this...
- My therapist just gave me a prescription for neurontin. Has anyone here used it and if so what was your experience? Will it help me handle the cravings? She told me it was an anti-anxiety drug but when I looked up the name of the drug it was generic...
- I am not a fibromyalgia sufferer but my sister-in-law is. She is a recovering heroin/cocaine addict. During the day she is lucid and seems to be very normal. However, when dinnertime hits she staggers around, her speech is slurred and eventually she...
- We are both retired and I watch Food Network and make him new and tasty dinners but he seems to want very plain food prepared by himself.
- My dermatologist just retired so I had to find a new one. This new doctor gave me a prescription for Clobex Spray. I have the guttate type of psoriasis so I have little spots all over my body. I've been using the spray since March 11th and every day...
- This is going to sound crazy but I'm sure some will understand. I do one of these two things when the itchiness gets the best of me. Not sure how many people remember those burn type things we did on our arms when we were kids. It is putting both...
- I've noticed that a lot of people who post here say that they are depressed. Some are too depressed to take Enbrel as it worsens it. I'm curious to know how many who read this are depressed. I know I am and I always wondered how much of it is due to...
- The first thing I do is soak for 10-20 minutes (depends how bad my skin is) in a tar bath called Balnetar. www.balnetar.com (If you don't want to buy things online any pharmacy will order it for you)Then I use my prescription cream called...
- Does anyone have this problem? I would say it's psoriasis but my husband gets it also when the weather is bitter. Right now I have my thumbs wrapped up in gauze with vaseline on them. My hubby used to get it from dealing with all the boxes when he...
- I think my husband is emotionally abusive. He says he yells at me and corrects me so I won't make a fool of myself or embarass myself. I just need to talk to someone right now.
- When my kids were growing up I was very organized and my house was kept clean and as neat as a house can be with two kids and a dog. When they became teenagers I got a full time job and I slacked off a little bit but I could still have guests over...
