I am no expert, no guru, no doctor, no psychologist, no therapist, no counselor, no body that can do anything other than be an ear to listen and a mouth to share my experience in life thus far. I hope that it helps you, even in some small way, to just get through one more day and then another...
Thanks @RainstormZA :wink: I didn't know him well but I can only imagine how it is affecting my brother who has shared some of his darkest moments with him on his journey battling his addiction.
I heard this morning that one of my brother's friends who he went through his second stint in rehab with, committed suicide in Thailand after relapsing :disappointed: I have been too self absorbed of late but am thinking of anyone and everyone out there struggling. Keep struggling, it is worth...
I am slowly catching up on this thread but hope that all have had a good start to 2019. I no longer set NY resolutions for various reasons, but came across this which has so many great points...

I have almost preached this for a few years after learning how much exercise, diet, rest, social interaction, etc. affects my mental state after separating from and then getting divorced from my now ex wife. I have my ups and downs and still struggle with adequate rest which has a huge affect...
That is great new @Viper_SA :wink: I know it has been a rough journey for you but I am really glad that you stuck it out! Please keep us updated as much as possible...
It has been too long, I forget to check this forum as I no longer vape, so I am catching up on this thread. It has great to see it is still being used to share...
It can be frustrating waiting for test results, my girlfriend has had multiple blood tests the last few weeks, waiting for the last round which was done on Tuesday. Good luck with them!
How is the CBD going? I wouldn't have recommended weening yourself off of medication without consulting a...
I cannot stress the importance of being as healthy as possible in all aspects of life and the effect it has on your well being, physically, mentally, etc. When I was separated from my ex wife, I had a lot more time to myself and I did a lot of introspection and soul searching, trying to find a...
