Hi everyone. Hope you are having a good week! I have a new batch of members I wanted to introduce to you all and to give a welcome to. Be sure and let them know how glad you are that they have stopped by and joined our group! We can always use more active members here so new members are ALWAYS welcome!
They go by the following usernames:
Melissa from Nevada ~ weiss from North Carolina ~ julie lenton from Australia ~ sunyiming1337 ~ Moe from Georgia ~ brittany lail from North Carolina ~ kriswithaK from Georgia ~ amanda1980 from Kentucky ~ Angie Lou from FLorida and Inmate's Mom from Longview, Texas.
We are so glad to have you all here as part of our group. I hope that you will make yourselves at home with us and in time feel comfortable enough to share something of your story with us. Are you a methadone patient or a loved one of a methadone patient? Or are you staff that works with methadone patients? Have you felt that methadone treatment has helped you/your loved one? Do you have any questions or concerns you would like to share?
It can be awfully lonely sometimes when you are a methdone pt because of the way most ppl feel about methadone treatment. They may not understand it, or they may not agree with it so that leaves the patient feeling like they are alone in this and that they have no one to talk to. It can also feel lonely for the loved on of the methadone pt for the very same reasons.
That is where we come in, or should I say, that is where we WANT to come in. We want to be here for others and to support each other in this struggle. And that is exactly what it is, no matter if you are currently stable or currently not. It is a daily struggle to maintain our sobriety and we hope that by coming together here, we can help each other on this bumpy road.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to post them here on the forum or if you would rather speak to someone privately, you can use the private message feature here in the forum. Just know that we are here for you, 24/7.
I hope to see you all around the forum!
