Considering NA

[Ladyred27]

I started therapy about 3 or 4 months ago and in this time I have realized something that I was trying not to see: I haven't control over what I consume.

I have reached a point where I want to stop and I don't know how. And at the same time I have infinite fear of losing myself, of ceasing to be who I am. For 11 years this has been the only way I have been able to reduce my anxiety and stress. (In a negative way).

A few weeks ago I said to my Therapist: If I don't consume, what will I have left?

I am scared, but also tired of living like this.

Hello Lady. I’m a recovering alcoholic since 2003. Basically we are the same in our addictions. Congratulations to you for having the courage to help yourself. You have taken that first step to recovery. Knowing you can’t recover by yourself. You have a therapist to help with your mental health issues, now you need a support group to help with the rest. You have nothing to lose by going to NA. It’s program has saved many, many souls and lives. Much like AA. It gives you your life back. It will be a journey, sometimes slow, sometimes fast. But so worth the try. ❤️🏄‍♀️
