MedHelp Is My N/A

although i feel the need to go to a meeting i have to admit that to me this forum works like nothing else. i just got in from work and just by checking in here, i feel like im getting the aftercare i need. although i can't give advice about pills and stuff, and not many share my DOC, i still can relate to what ya'll say. the good thing about this forum is that it's here 24 hours a  day and i can wear my pajama's, lol. anyway for some reason i felt like superman again today, maybe the coke is finally out of my system and my head is cleared again. one good thing about my tiny bump, is that i remember again how awful that lifestyle really was, coming down off coke is hell, but i had this forum that day and all i know is there is no way i could have showed up to an N/A meeting in the shape i was, dont' get me wrong, i'm all for N/A and AA, they are wonderful support groups, but to me, this site WORKS. ok so im on day 5 now, my god, that is painful to say, but the truth. why is it so much easier this time?

I agree with you 100% about this forum, it has saved me too, but honestly it's people like you that make this forum such a warm wonderful place to come.
You ask why it's easier this time.....well I think it's because you've seen the way life is without coke and using it only made your world feel black. Congradulations on the 5 days clean and it won't be long until that 5 days becomes 5 months again, but what's really important is that you're clean, now that's a beautiful thing.
Good luck with your golfing game!! A friend of mine invited me to go boating this weekend so I think I will take him up on the offer.

Simple!  It is your reward for helping others on this site.  It is because so many on here have prayed for you.  It is because of your stronger will and determination.  It is because so many on this site love you and support you!

or, as I said in an earlier post to you, you have walked miles out of your addiction, and only took a few small steps back.

My very best to you,

I am going to go bowling. But it will be on a 2 day cruise. LOL Leaves Seattle for 2 nites and comes back. Called a cruise to nowhere. I think they do them out of NY too.
Have fun golfing. I know you have been waiting a long time for it to get nice again.
