Hey there……..
It IS really hard for "non addicts" to understand anything we are going thru…. but WE, here, well, the vast majority
of us here, understand what your going through….
Living without drugs, once you’ve been ON them for any amount of time is, well it’s really shitty sometimes.
My "vote" here, is STILL the same as what I wrote above, , ,
"COULDA BEEN WORSE"
AT LEAST you didn’t go get a bag, or a handful of pills and do that.
I don’t know exactly what your "choice" was,,,, when I’ve been asked what my drug of choice was, I usually say,
"I have to pick ONE??"
back on topic,
it coulda been worse,
I hope you and your girl can work things out. . . . Have you asked her, or thought about going to counseling together???
Honestly, I think counseling is the ONLY reason my husband has been able to let go of all the crap I put our family through,
and be SUPPORTIVE of me, now.
Something about that non-biast "proffesional" opinion really helped him SEE I’m not the only, or even the worst addict
out there…….. Hmmmmmm what a concept, eh?
and if it doesn’t work out, well I guess that’s not where your sopposed to be…
There’s lots of counseling, where the actual doctor will "negotiate" fees….. we have no insurance, but maybe it’s the shitty economy or something, we’ve found MORE than one, who was willing to work for cash, for less than a THIRD what they would bill insurance.
My step brother, did the same thing, on the East Coast, so I know it isn’t just in my area or something.
Maybe it’s worth a shot??? What do you have to lose??
AND,,,,, maybe by asking her, to go with you, it will REALLY SHOW you want to get better, you care enough
to put that much effort forward, blah blah blah
you know all the BS us women like to hear……
That’s all I got
I hope things turn around for you
