Thanks for joining! I had an account here about a decade ago and have turned to the dark side forums (not in a darth vader way of course
of late because I have wound up with a opiate and benzo problem, and am just starting recovery.
The more the merrier in terms of support.
I think peer to peer support is very helpful - even vital - to many people's recoveries. It's very lonely at times when no one understands what we are going through.
18 days you are 9 days ahead of me already my friend so congratulations on that! :D
I noticed you are from Santa Cruz - funny because I have been watching and reading "Dharma Punx" by Noah Levine who was also from there. I draw a lot of inspiration from him.

Feel free to PM me anytime. I don't mind at all if anyone PMs me to be honest. I struggle a lot with insomnia (part of my core problems that lead to this crazy drug use) so I usually available, even if people just need to chat and are lonely and need a rant.
Nice to meet you, welcome and I wish you all the best and to love yourself
