LOL.. NA a great place to get stuff off your chest and then go out and get fucked up... Kinda like church confessions only without all the hellfire damnation shit...
haha. I went to one meeting...then I moved. The day I moved back home I got fucked up and the story of my life just wrote itself from there.
"Bill loved LSD. He urged everyone he knew to try it, including his wife Lois, his secretary Nell Wing, his friend Dr. Jack Norris, Reverend Sam Shoemaker, and Father Ed Dowling. He even thought his mother might benefit. My Name Is Bill; Bill Wilson — His Life And The Creation Of Alcoholics Anonymous
^^ Is that a quote from a book about Bill W.? That's awesome, I know Jung had something to do with the creation of A.A. didn't he?
Yup, Thats the name of the book; excerpt from my "debate" about LSD; http://hubpages.com/hub/Medical-Studies-Prove-The-Extensive-Damage-LSD-Does-To-The-Body-Mind Alcoholism has been treated using psychedelics, namely LSD, with fairly good results, averaging a 50% success rate when done in tandem with supportive counseling and follow up care. As there is good deal of literature concerning this topic I will just provide a quick excerpt and links and I encourage the reader to investigate them on their own. As an interesting side note Bill Wilson the founder of AA was "cured" of his drinking while undergoing treatment utilizing barbiturates and belladonna, a very dangerous delerient hallucinogen. He later became involved with Humphrey Osmond and Abraham Hoffer in their work with LSD and fully supported it and Wilson himself took LSD in 1956 http://csp.org/chrestomathy/pass_it_on.html. "Bill loved LSD. He urged everyone he knew to try it, including his wife Lois, his secretary Nell Wing, his friend Dr. Jack Norris, Reverend Sam Shoemaker, and Father Ed Dowling. He even thought his mother might benefit. My Name Is Bill; Bill Wilson — His Life And The Creation Of Alcoholics Anonymous, Susan Cheever, page 241."
That story's been told a billion times or so. The people in NA have first-hand knowledge. Wishing you well.
Careful not to get too brainwashed... Take everything with a grain of salt and realize that the power to stay off the bad shit is in your hands and not the hands of anybody else. Don't lie to yourself, and keep it real. Good luck!
im acutally checkin into inpatient next month. kind of a manditory thing to avoid jail. but im actually REALLY looking forward to it. and its only 28 days so its not too bad
good luck! you're definitely best off going to the NA meetings. if drugs change your life for the worse, youve got a problem and thats exactly what your recent disturbing events sounds like to me
I'm in Southern Maryland, If you what someone to go to a meeting with let me know. A lot of good people around here and good meetings.
