I belong to a new online community that has much support and many are in recovery too. I would join up and be part of the support there. I have heard they are going to start online meetings soon. Hope to see you there, and remember if you don't stop it now it is only going to go down hill, which is called progression. You may have dual diagnosis and may have been self medicating. So you need to consider that medication may be needed as well.<br><b>References : </b><br>I am an addiction counselor http://christianflockforums.com/forum.php Many people are able to stop without going to therapy or a rehap..But it takes commitment, and finding support especially for the bad days.
