Overcoming Addiction Together

My name is Henry and I struggle with addiction. I have been diagnosed bipolar and am very hard on myself during periods of relapse. I wanted to create a group to provide a safe space where people can share whatever they feel comfortable sharing about themselves in regards to their addictions, their mental health, their triggers, and the goal will always be to help each other feel heard, respected, and understood (though everybody has their own lived experience to be respectful of). Whether it is codependency in a relationship, ongoing battles with mental illness, or feeling lonely and anxious, everyone has their own triggers when it comes to addiction. This is a no-judgement compassionate zone to share, listen, and spread kindness. I hope to create a community with you and look forward to introducing myself to you all. This is always a completely nonjudgemental space and without telling others what to do, we can all seek to be good listeners and provide compassion.

Addiction, Recovery, Mental Illness, A Safe Space

I spent 10 years addicted to opiates. My addiction started after the loss of my daughter at an early age and I spiraled quick. I lost my business, my family and my freedom. I found myself in prison with nowhere to turn. I turned harder into drugs and what should have been 6 years on good behavior turned into a little over 9. Today I’ve been sober almost 5 years. I’ve started to rebuild and just finally opened up my business. I learned along the way that not all programs help all people. I learned that addiction wasn’t my problem it was merely a symptom of my problem. The reason I kept turning back to drugs was because I “needed” them still. Until I dealt with the pain, grief and guilt I was always going to need them. Once I turned my focus to my mental health everything changed. I started working on myself and dealing with the internal stuff inside and I finally found a small piece of peace- that small piece was all I needed. I had to commit to the idea of changing my people, places and things too. That was a huge step. With my mental health as my main focus and removing everything and everyone negative from my life I was able to redeem myself and resurrect from the dead. What works for you might not work for me but let’s see if my story can inspire you and vice versa.
