  • Hiya Jack,

    Most of us have been there... above our head in debt, drinking too much, feeling like utter utter crap...

    The fact your here is a massive and positive step... You have sought and found ears and advice. And as far as i can see - wherever you are on this forum everyone is non judgmental

    Welcome to the fold

    if I was to post how I felt when I stopped, you would find it hard to believe me...part of me wishes I had written it down but the pain and stress was really too great.

    If anyone asks for help on here, I'll do my best to help them...I've had help in my time and it made all the difference....the folks here and in my real life are still helping me....take care

    omg, i just read the replies to my message,
    and i don't mind telling you i'm bawling my eyes out and i need your help.

    my life is in ashes, embers, ruins,
    i don't quite know how to describe it.

    i just know i'm rubbish and not good enough.

    i'm really sorry, for being a !!!!!!-head,
    i'm not very good at this sort of thing.

    We all feel like this sometimes.(Sorry for everything...the drink...the debt)Try not to let it all get to you too much.I arn't very good with words but maybe Bismarck will be back soon.
    He always seems to know the right things to say.
    I can listen though;)
