Well Im not too sure what to say so I guess Ill just start with a few things about me.
Had a messed up childhood (like most) I was always surrounded by drugs & swore that ID NEVER BE LIKE THAT!!! SUREEEE

I had/have a huge pill problem that started about 15 years ago. I went to court ordered rehab...did not help one bit. It actually taught me more about the heavier drugs which is completely ironic.

Then after years of popping pills i figured...time to stop. So a friend gave me # for a suboxone doc.I dont know if this was a good or bad thing at this point. He started me on 32mg's a day with 4mg xanax to ease my anxiety issues & also the dr said the subs would intensify the anxiety. Sooo after 2 years of seeing this sub dr I started to try & wean myself off of subs because whenever i mentioned it to him...he'd say "You just arent ready" another 3 years go by and I lost my job and pretty much everything else I have ever had. i dont even talk to family anymore...which to be honest, I feel is a good thing. They all have their DOC & act as if they are angels. I hate liars so I cut them out of my life.

Now I cant afford subs and for the 1st time in my life started OC's...theyre way too expensive so guess what comes next kids??? You got it...H!
Something I al;ways said if i did that I would end up 6 feet under. Its been about 2 months & im still here. I do have a lot of questions that I cant talk to anyone about & when I saw this site...it was like a blessing....so to speak.

RIGHT NOW...I have no apartment, job, money & am staying on a relatives couch that treats me like a POS everyday of my life. But I suck it up because my next step is a shelter & im trying everything in power to avoid that. I currently have a HUGE tolorence...well always have. Dr's would blame my mothers drug use while she was carrying me on that but who knows. I hate to be a finger pointer. So here I am....for the 1st time being honest about what i am actually doing & I have to say, I feel a tiny bit better.

Thanks for listening :0)
 
Just recently. And THANK GOD! I have lost 40lbs from not having money to eat...make sense right!!! Ill scrape change to get gm but will be fine without eating. I feel like an idiot even typing this.But my weight has always fluctuated. Im never the same weight.EVER. it can be very frustrating. Im an emotional eater.
 
Hi- i just wanted to thank you all for that little extra push in what to do with my abcess...i went straight to the hospital and had it aspirated.it was very very painful & im happy that i didnt let my stupidity keep me from going...other wise, id be without an arm right now.
Thank you all very much....i truly appreciate it

much <3 & respect to you all
 
Hey, Thanks for asking....I went straight to the ER after reading these posts and wanted to thank you all for the kick in the butt that I needed to get there.
It was in fact one of the most painful experiences of my life. BUT I still have my hand. The abscess was right next to my radial artery so they wanted to send me straight to surgery but after hearing that I dont have any insurance...well they decided to aspirate :)
Im in a lot of pain now and of course they wouldnt give me any but i expected that. Im happy its over....well almost...i have to go back in a few days to get the packing removed & will have a 3" scar but Im alive & thats all that matters.

Thank you!!!!
 
I'm glad you had it taken care of.

I would get on food stamps if you cannot afford food.

8(
45 day wait.....ahhh ny :)
but i am trying to get an appointment to see if i can be put under an emergency situation...which this is.
I have looked up food banks but they all want some sort of proof..So monday im going to ask to use my friends phone to start calling these places to see how they can help.

I'm curious as to what happened that you needed to get surgery? You mentioned an abscess which I'm not entirely informed on
