Tajk. Hi nice to meet you. We got a few things in common. For one, the big butt. I got my big butt from gaining weight on all these meds. And i love riding my bike. I have myself a purple beach crusier with a little white basket. I put my little puppy bayou in the basket and you'd swear he thought he was riding a Harley.

I have a few addictions myself. Alcohol and drugs top the list. I could easily get hooked into gambling, but like you. i stay clear away from it. If someone does talk me into going which is once every few years. Its the penny slots for me.

Growing up in my family, we didnt talk about our problems. It was all hush hush. Now that i'm 36, i'm learning to talk about things. Oops, imean 37. Well, ya know, i really feel like 21. Anyway, i started seeing a counsler a few months back and she's trying her darndest to get me to talk about what i've kept bottled up for all these years. She hasnt broke me down yet. I guess i'm just not ready to go there with her yet. But, i've made some very good friends here at pc and i've been able to let them in some of the way.

I hope pc helps you out like it has for me. All the people here in the substance forum are killa. They got it going on. Rayna has a Recovery chat on tuesday nights in the chat room. A bunch of us are there every week. Maybe if you get the chance you can stop by and check it out. We'd love to see you.

well, you take it easy and keep posting here.
