Hi! I'm assuming your post means you want to talk? What would you like to talk about? I'm willing to talk about whatever - it would be nice to see some more action in this forum.

I know what you mean. I don't know if people don't know about this forum or are just reluctant to post for some reason. Personally, I would like to hear from others who are taking a harm reduction approach - what works, how much it has helped, etc. I spent years in NA and four months in rehab (on two separate occasions) , but was still unable to stop using. Eventually I gave up and embraced harm reduction, and as a result was able to reduce my use over about two years to less than 1/20th of what it used to be! Not only that, but my quality of life increased dramatically and very quickly. By that time I finally felt ready to quit (and not just like I HAD to quit because of health or other nasty reasons), which was just before Christmas; and although I have used on five occasions since then, each time was a one shot thing that didn't lead to a binge or a desire to return to active addiction. I almost never get cravings, and the best thing is I'm not stuck in a seemingly endless depression that always followed past attempts to quit. Until now, the longest I was ever able to go (outside of being an inpatient somewhere) was five days. Otherwise I used every single day for the past five years.
So I'm feeling pretty good about things for the first time in years, and know that regardless of what happens next, I WILL be able to quit for good someday. I never ever would have believed that a few years ago! I have really taken to heart the truth that there is only one sure way to fail, and that is to quit trying. All those stays in rehab and detox and in the hospital due to drug related complications (usually OD) were important in getting where I am today. So even if your recovery program doesn't seem to be working, remember that all the work you do to get well adds up - if it takes a hundred admissions and three NA meetings a day for years before you see results it is totally worth it! Peace Smile
