Hey to everyone! This is my first posting but I have been reading others for over a year now. I guess it was time for me to actually participate in something.....and I desperately need to make a connection with someone outside of my immediate family. People who can understand my struggles and not treat me like a junkie. I'm having a difficult time coping and am trying to cut back my usage and maybe actually quit. I want that but my cravings and withdrawal keep interfering.

I guess this is a good place to start. Anyone else need a new friend?
 
You are very wise to reach out. I think connection is everything during our brief time here on the planet. Getting support outside of your family is key and I'm sure you will find that here with lots of people that understand exactly what you are going through. I understand the "difficult time coping" part. It helps just to say that out loud. Thanks for your courage.
 
Welcome to Bluelight katmandu41.

As herbavore mentioned, You've taken the first step of asking for help. Check out the The Dark Side forum. It will defiantly be the place to talk to other people who are in similar shoes to you.
 
I just wish I had someone to talk to about what I'm going thru. My man found my stash a couple of days ago coincidentally the day after I decided I wanted to quit. He feels bad for being nosey but concerned and I didn't make it any easier on him. I did answer his question without volunteering anything. I was already mortified and ashamed of what I was doing. Now it's even worse. No strength or courage there.
 
The main reason I joined this forum is to reach out and meet people who understand. You're in the right place. It's very cathartic here and the members are wonderful.
 
Hey there. Not sure exactly what to say....I'm finding my resolve to quit fading fast. I feel so hopeless all the time again. I'm just going thru the motions doing as little as possible. I guess I'm depressed again. And that just copy ds things. How r u?
 
Katmandu- As JoshE said, you should check out The Dark Side! You will find all of BL a great community and find many people who understand you. With the particular struggles you described I think TDS (I gave you a link above there) would be the right fit for you. There will be many there who can help support you in your desire to slow down or quit as you go. <3
Depression is something millions of people experience. You aren't alone in that.
In fact, The Dark Side has a number of threads about Depression, including a Depression MEGA thread.
Hope to see you there!
<3
 
Its tough going alone. Sometimes you just need someone to vent to that wont judge. :) Its going to be okay, just keep trying!
