About
This community is the forefront for people helping others to conquer their active addictions and for those who want to learn and have some coaching on getting and staying clean through real life experience! I myself have been through the worst of drug addictions and have remained clean for going on 8 years. I am looking to share my experience and knowledge to help fight the stigma associated with drug addictions.
Alcohol
I am a mom of 2 amazing son’s, whom at one point in my life got neglected because I was so unhappy in my relationship. At the time I only knew how to cope with my unhappiness with drinking a 40 of rye a week. I was extremely depressed and at time felt like I’d rather die then life how I was living. I even thought about starting to cut myself as a cry for help. Thankfully I never did! Neofacs was involved with my family to try and help me and the kids be safe, I also spent sometime in the mental health department to try and help my depression and I was starting to do better then they let me out on a trial basis to see how I’d do. It didn’t take long for my ex to bump me back 10 steps that I got ahead during my stay at the hospital. That’s when I realized it was my relationship that was the cause, however I had no friends or family in the town we moved to and I felt so alone. It wasn’t until my brother passed away and my ex refused to take me back home to say good bye to him, he didn’t even try to get the time off work. So on our next trip back home I did not return with him and the kids and I stayed with my mom until I could find an appointment and I was able to have booze in my freezer for months and not even want to drink it. I found the cause of my drinking and took care of it and my urge to drink went with it. I raised my kids as a single mother and they are such amazing young men I am so proud of them. I had completely lost who I was as a person in that relationship and needed many years of counseling to heal and grow but now I went back to high school got my grade 12 diploma then went to college to get my diploma in the Social Service Worker program and graduated with honours with the most amazing man supporting me and showing me how healthy love should feel like.
Recovery
I am 2 years in recovery from weed. I used to smoke a bong with tobacco base and weed on the top. I was able to be around it since I was selling it with my ex. He an enabler. He helped learn how to be addicted to this. Every day 10-15 tokes a day always high going to work, family events all always high. It was like I was living a second life and it was crazy for me. I didn’t realize what I was into. I was puking every time I smocked which came almost bulimic since I was eating McDonald’s Wendy’s anything big and fatty, then taking a role throwing up. I got to my goal weight in an unhealthy way. I was happy with that and happy with my lifestyle. I went to college in 2023 and broke up with him and smoked less since I was in college… more people I would tell them they would look at me funny I felt maybe I am dumb or something… I came to realize that is not a norm. And it’s not a lifestyle it’s a life choice. Once I was done college I decided to completely stop the bong, which i gained weight, and til this day I have body dysmorphia, however I would rather have that then be in addiction. I told myself this isn’t how I was to live, I’m ruining my relationships and my life. I decided to stop and do a form of cannabis in a electric pen, where I’m not hacking or throwing up from a hit, I’m not solely dependant on it. I know this isn’t like cocaine or meth but a drug is a drug and an addiction is an addiction. And anyone should be praised of getting rid of an addiction. It doesn’t control you, you control it.
