Damn, bro. It's good to vent sometimes. I do indeed wish you luck and just remember, you are not helping your body with the drinking.

BTW, I took 3 Soma's this weekend also because of hurting my lower back and all I can say is damn! They knocked me out eachh day within an hour of taking them. I like sleep and all, but I didn't even watch any of the playoff games!

Good luck bro, keep strong!

Good luck bro, I have a family history of substance abuse and look at my good fortune of being able to stop at 1 or 3 (sometimes 3 or 4

). Seriously, look into a 12 step program, if you are ready. If not, good luck until then. You have to be ready and do it for yourself.

I've done those before to help get me off other dope, it didn't, just made it worst. But thank God I'm off.

The first step to recovery is asking for or admitting you need help. So your on the right road, Bro.

Klonopin is a very addictive drug, and, with all due respect, it sounds like you have a bit of an addiction problem. I'd try not to substitute one for the other. Have you ever visited an AA meeting? They have them all over the place and you might hear something helpful to you.

**Speedracer59** · 01-14-2003, 05:26 PM

I am quitting everything. Thanks for the encouragement and advise.The shit is really holding me back as far as training. I got some good advise from "trip" I am going to take. He talks as though he has known me for years.

**JohnnyB** · 01-14-2003, 06:09 PM

Speedracer I'll be praying for you Bro
