I'm not going to die on my kids because of a selfish
addiction
. Time to cut out the beer. Day 1 of sobriety starts tomorrow for me...yes, I am having a beer or two today to calm my nerves. Tomorrow starts a change for me.

Always Feeling Tired Unless I have Caffeine
I don't drink caffeine very often (so it's not an
addiction
issue), but it is only when I do that I feel good at all. The problem is, when I take caffeine, I don't feel tired or depressed anymore, but I start to feel anxious or overly hyper (like I'm on speed or something).

I need help....
When I realized that I had a really strong
addiction
passed a lot of time (nearly 2 years). I visited support groups, but nothing could help me. Each time I stooped to use meth I felt anxiety and depression again and again. I'm really disappointed and don't know how to deal with my
addiction
.

Shops shut - anxiety
People see that as an
addiction
and you are treated for that with compassion. We are seen as half casts. We have an
addiction
that is cloaked is the shadows of mental illness. People think we can just "get over it".

I need to say goodbye to my friend, “Goodbye Keith and warn you all about opiate painkillers.”
I knew about Keith’s mental health problems but I never knew about his prescription drug
addiction
. As a nurse I know prescription drug
addiction
is taking over the popularity of street drugs. I have looked after so many individuals that have found themselves in this situation.

My psychiatrist refuses to prescribe me adderall.
I refuse to let my past
addiction
define who I am. So now that I'm 2 years clean (I am prescribed methadone) I decided that I needed to go out and get back on my meds because all I do is sit at home on my ass. I have 4 kids and i dont get up and clean and 4 kids can destroy a house fast.

My lexapro has started to not work as well. Is there a good medication to help augment it?
Plus I just started going to a psychiatrist and he has but me on Ativan twice a day and I don’t want to be on that for any long period of time because of the
addiction
issues. I told him and he doesn’t think it will be a problem because I have not had any
addiction
issues in the past. That’s BS.

I’m here less often lately
Also, in addition to anxiety and depression, I also have an
addiction
. I’ve discovered a 12-Step recovery group that is really good for me. But, it does use up more of my time. So - I know I’ve been here less often. But I will probably never truly go away from this group.

W9R3 Is History
Is this the beginning of the good
addiction
to running? Anyway, I was suddenly overcome by the fear that I wouldn't be able to finish it, that I would need to walk half-way through. At the 15-min mark I was sucking air but knew I had enough in the tank to keep going.

Diazepan addiction.
Hiya I haven't posted for about 8 months but would like some thoughts from fellow sufferers. I've been taking 10mg of Diazepan for roughly 2 yrs after Clonazepan stopped working. My question is what damage is there from long term Diazepan use. I already feel like a zombie from the Diazepan but it does

Running watches - the curse of the Devil??
ADDICTION
!!! Is it possible to give away things that you are addicted to? In my case , it is my running watch - or even before I got that, my RUNKEEPER App on my phone. After I did C25k 5 years ago , I discovered a "Running for Fitness" programme in the famous Jack Daniels book.
