Hi there, I'm dual diagnosed: bp and recovering alcoholic/drug addict (pain meds). My last drink was on 6/12/1999 but I relapsed with pain meds that were prescribed to me ending 2/15/2011. I go to AA meetings. Since I'm not working now I go to about 4 a week. AA isn't for everyone, but it's what really helped me get sober in the first place and helps me keep my head on straight. You can always PM me for support if you want.
