Hi guys, I have finally joined wanted to do this a long time ago and now I've joined I don't know where to start and how this works. But I would rather talk to you guys about this stuff I feel comfortable to talk here, so I'm just going to go for it. I have been struggling with substance abuse from age 16, it used to be recreational and last month I went a full month without going into it again. 17:17 as I write this, I know I can choose to say no to the little voice in my head saying let's take drugs and do the same shit I've been doing to "have a good time" because that turns into binging and having no sleep for 5 days and what have I got out of doing that, my lips are sore from biting them and anxiety and not going out of my apartment for days, and doing the same stuff, playing Tekken and fucking my body and mind up for a "good time", I thought this would help me to write this and telling that voice in my mind to do one in trying to stop me from writing this because I am scared of being judged for posting this. Done it now. Love you all
