I reached out to a friend in Virginia named Ron. I hope he gets in touch with you. He can help. Keep speaking about what id going on. A closed mouth does not get fed. You will find help if you ask. If you can, get to a meeting. NA works well for addicts who have a desire to stop using. Other 12 step fellowships work for other issues. Find what works and become Part Of. Good luck and feel free to add me as a friend and contact me directly.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must but don't you quit
Life is queer with its twists and turns
As everyone of us sometimes learns
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out
Don't give up though the pace seems slow
You might succeed with another blow
Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup
And he learned too late
When the night slipped down
How close he was to the golden crown
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems afar
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit

Getting to a meeting in person.. You can google meetings in your location. Setting in a room of others just like you.... and me... we are not alone and there is a solution
Hello mister.... add me as a friend... getting clean takes help you got that right....I didnt go to treatment. I found myself homeless penniless so God and I had a talk about the fact that it might be because of drugs....I started going to as many NA meetings or AA meetings as I could.... woolah I will have 8 yrs on June 8th.... loving you brother..... Joanne
Hi shane, Victoria P here....welcome to the group, keep sharing your thoughts, sometimes they make more sense when written down, I have 8 yrs clean and I do this thing one day at a time, sounds cliche but it really works, with a sponsor, the steps, my higher power and the fellowship of NA, here I am living a life I don't even deserve. We need you as much as you need us, I see there are men reaching out to you already, grab ahold of them!!!!
Hay man. Do you have a home group and sponsor. My main place to hang on the web is a place called In The Rooms. It is also a recovery site. It has over 100k years of clean time with its members. You can email me direct if you need some help. Hugs

Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity
