Hello, I feel or should I say felt your pain for many many years. I understand the fears, the uncomfortability and the ego all attack when you want to get help for yourself. Having broken my neck in 1975 I have the ability to get just about any type of drug I'd like, at anytime. however, I have chosen not to. The pain passes and on occasion I take tylenol. For many years I fled my feelings afraid of what someone might think and then with the help of God and AA I realized that whatsome else thinks of me is none of my business. One way to help yourself, if you can't go to your first meeting would be to start reading the 12 steps and the BIg Book on the internet, in addition, there are online meetings. Lastly, as an option call NA or AA intergroup and tell them you need help, they will send another addict that has been through what you are going through to take you to a meeting. Try to remember the slogan, "this too shall pass" when you're feeling terrible, it works if you work it. Continue taking the first step, you are on your way, back to the land of the living.
