Religion rears it's ugly head

I sought out support in places like LSR specifically to find a place free from religious proselytizing and solutions that made use of supernatural beings, prayer and the like. There are more than enough places on the internet and off that make use of religion or 'spirituality' and those can be easily found by those who believe in that stuff. Finding a place that doesn't mention 'god' or some other bait and switch term for god can be difficult and the search should be rewarded by a 'religion free… Continue

First Entry

Hi everyone. I've never written a blog before and am not sure what I want to say, just that I hope to write back and forth with anyone out there who is doing the clean/sober thing. Drop a line and say 'hi', shoot the breeze (or anything else), tell me what's going on or just joke around. I'm pretty open to whatever you want to talk about.

I really enjoy the new life that quitting drugs has allowed me to have and enjoy talking with others who are doing the same. I'm not at all into the t… Continue

Thanks mike :)

I'm trying to just go with the flow and hang in there. Did you see what I did to my page??? I am trying my life as a goth, LOL

The whole goth/emo thing kind of suits my mood at the moment. Hopefully I'll snap out of it soon and my life will be full of flowers and rainbows, hehehe

Thanks so much for being there for me my friend, hugs...

Hey Mike, how are you doing? I've decided to try ning again for a while. I've been isolating big time and it is hurting me.

Hope to stay in touch, Silvia
