I am having such a rough time. I'm afraid that I am on the verge of a relapse. I am really sick of fighting this. I am angry, sad and depressed. I have had a struggle with addiction for many many years and I just want to live a normal life and not feel like im a bad person. I was addicted to cocaine and have been clean for 9 years but still have the desire to make all my feelings go away. I was bulimic for 12 years and when I gain weight ( as i have since i quit ) I have to fight the urge to binge, still, after 9 years. I've been to counselling and rehab but have come to the conclusion that faith in God is the only real solution but even my faith is weakening. My husband smokes/drinks and the temptation is always near. He works away alot though but I am raising 5 children and working full time myself. 3 of my children have ADD, 1 has dyslexia and I suspect that I have ADD as well but because I have an "addictive personality" , I do not think that any Dr. would give me ritalin. I just want the maddness to stop. I am afraid for my children. If I fall apart, what will happen to them? I have been taking the antidepressant zoloft for 10 years now but my dr doesn't want to change the dosage. He also doesn't believe in a diagnosis of ADD. I am so frustrated. Will smoking help? I'm tired of the fight to regain my life. My 7 year old just had a birthday party and only 2 out of 26 classmates came. I wonder if its me and if the stigma of addiction,depression and ADD is going to shade my life forever. I want to cry but the zoloft deadens my feelings so I can't even do that right. Quite a pity party I have going on...... Sorry for the ramble... Quitting smoking was supposed to make me feel more worthy but right now I sure don't feel good about myself.

Hi Cincere. You came here and posted because you know it was the right thing to do. You quit smoking because it is the right thing to do. You beat other addictions and although you may still feel the affects of them many years later it is nothing like being a junkie. Where would those five kids be without their mom to help them along the way? Sounds like you are a great person to me. You know deep down inside that you are a great person. You don't need a doctor to tell you that you are a success. Your life is showing it. Hang on to your quit. It gets better. It just takes time. Just as the other addictions. Life isn't always a bed of roses. Sometimes it seems the hands we are delt just aren't fair. But that doesn't matter to people like you. You are strong and you are a winner. No matter what life throws your way you will make it through. You have proven that already. Let this be another success for you. You deserve to live long enough to see the rewards of breaking all these addictions. I think you are awesome. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 7/1/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 482 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 9,657 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1687 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 42 [B]Hrs:[/B] 13 [B]Mins:[/B] 18 [B]Seconds:[/B] 27

WHOA, HOLD ON - STOP THE PITY PARTY. Sounds to me like you have no reason to think you are a bad person, in fact, just the opposite. You said it yourself - you are clean 9 years from cocaine - been there, done that - not easy. You are raising 5 kids, sounds like by yourself, and doing an excellent job, I'm sure - also not an easy feat. I think you need to stand up and give yourself a pat on the back - WAIT A MINUTE - LET ME DO. Cincere, you are an amazing person to be able to do all this and maintain your quit. Do not give up. It really won't be worth it. You will feel so much worse than you do now. Freedom is just around the corner, please give it more time. I know you can do this. You know you can do it too. Sceam at the Junkie. I DO NOT SMOKE.

cincere, You have your hands so full. Sometimes we can get very overwhelmed... but... with time... it passes. I've always heard and believed that when life feel like it's almost too much, then it's time to do something for someone that's not as fortunate as yourself. Just when you think no one has it worse... you can always find someone that does. By doing something for them, they feel better, you feel better... and you've taken the focus off your own troubles for a while. When you return to them, they don't seem quite as bad. You've invested a lot of work into improving your life...and into breaking your nicotine addiction. Keep moving forward. The benefits you'll reap will be more than rewarding. Tell your doctor you need more help. If he knows your quit is in jeopardy, he may give you more options. If that doctor won't listen...find another that will. Hang tough :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/2/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 631 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 12,639 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $2252.67 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 66 [B]Hrs:[/B] 21 [B]Mins:[/B] 55 [B]Seconds:[/B] 22

Cincere, Thank you for reaching out and coming here and sharing your feelings. You have made it nearly two months and NOT smoked over 1,600 cigarettes. That is a HUGE accomplishment and you have done it in less than perfect conditions. You are worthy. And you deserve a reward. Something very personal and something that is all for you. I'm sorry that things are so overwhelming right now but God is in control especially when it seems He is not. He knows you're worthy and even if you can't see the end of this fight - He can. Please stay close and please don't smoke. Sandra [i]Jesus said to him, �If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.� [/i](Mark 9:23) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/5/2004 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 813 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 16,261 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $3658.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 60 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 31 [B]Seconds:[/B] 19
