Dear jody,Please get help,call someone.the crisses line,ca or na tell them how desperate you are.Suicide is not the answer,think of all the people who love you and will have to go through all the heart break after your gone.Once your gone the pain is over for you but it will live on in the hearts of your family forever,believe me I know my ex husband took his own life and left his three beautiful children too suffer.It has been many years but the kids still miss him and suffer the lost.Please get help,it will get better if you just reach out to someone.Come here and post often there are alot of wise and caring people on this site .Ive been comming here for two years ,Im a addict,my drug of choice is crack,Im going to rehap on monday and I know my life just gets better and better each day im clean.I hope you will not do anything crazy and give life a chance without the *censored sh_t.You will see it does get better one day at a time.
Hugs to you if I could give you a hug in person I would but I will be thinking of you.

Hey there Jodyboy,

Welcome to this forum. I have been where you are and thankfully didn't commit suicide. Something had to give - that something was me. I had to radically change my life (people places and things). It sounds like alot but really I gained far more than I ever gave up. For me it took NA and AA meetings to get me any length of sobriety and clean time. I have been clean from crack since July of 06. Its not easy but it has been the most rewarding thing I have done for myself. Its you that has to take the step though - you have to reach out. It is out there (if you put half the effort into getting and staying clean as you do into your using lifestyle you will be amazed at what you can do)

Glad you checked back in - Slowing down from what I have seen is only a temporary measure. But the help is out there when you want it.
