Answer 1

I know how you must be feeling. Give all of your faith to God he will help you overcome your addiction. Just do me a favor and Walk away from satan.....remember this, anything that is temporary is Satan, simple huh? Love to you and God Bless. I will pray for you and your family. God is Forever Lasting. Read your Bible. Don`t let Satan take everything away from You that matters, because he will eventually. I have been in your shoes, I know where you are coming from and I know where you are Going if you do not stop Satan. Has Satan ever been your TrueFriend really ask yourself that question. Your True Blessing is waiting for you....So what are you waiting for? Your True friend in Christ .....Georgia Peach

Answer 3

All the answers and advice you are going to get will be the same - STOP!

You need to figure out why you do this type of destructive behavior. Are you unhapy? Overwhelmed? Feeling unloved?

Whatever the hurt is - you are going to have to deal with it head on. You are not a child anymore. You have a baby.

You can not be selfish like this - you have a baby.

Your are not alone - EVERYONE is wounded in some way.

Your life is probably not that bad. You are probably just looking at it negatively. And if it is really bad then you need to think about how to make it better at it's core - not at the surface with drugs.

And lastly. PLEASE DO NOT HAVE ANY MORE CHILDREN UNTIL YOU GET YOUR LIFE STRAIGHTENED OUT FOR GOOD.

Answer 4

when i started NA I thought it was a cult... But I kept going, got a sponsor and a home group and have been 1 year clean.... I also am very close to God , so try both... You can meet a lot of people at NA who can relate to you and support you when the addiction takes over ....Good Luck

Answer 5

I have never tried crack...but I was diagnosed as an alcoholic when I was 15...and was hospitalized 3 times before I was 16 for abuse. I had alcohol poisoning twice. The only one that can help is YOU. I was the only one that could stop. I went to AA...did all that. Nothing worked for me...except me. God had nothing to do with it. I guess...I had to get into the right frame of mind. I had to seperate myself from those who drank...or reminded me of the way that I used to be. It is so hard. I understand. I hope that you are able to kick this. I do not pray...but my best thoughts are with you.

Answer 6

knowing the problem is the first and most important step. go to the meetings, go do what ever you have to to get off the damn drugs! and dont keep faith with people who have nothing but spirtual advice - actions speak louder then words (ask Mother Teresa) and remember God helps those who help themselves

Answer 7

You don't need to have 'spiritual closeness' to start in NA. I haven't seen many ministers in the rooms. :)..
Give it a shot, and work the program to the best of your ability.
It works if you work it.

Answer 8

Good for you! Drugs don't get you no where....Your hubby and SON come first. before some stupid DRUG!!!! Stay clean and god bless...

Answer 9

Never do a drug named after a part of your a$$
