intro 31 Jan 2018 03:38 #326208

Hi, 
Ive been struggling with this almost all of my life. Since I was a kid, as long as I can remember, maybe from age 7 or so.
30 years later I still struggle and hope to someday completely break free.

Welcome! Gosh, 30 years is a lot of reversing to do. What tools do you want to use?

Welcome aboard, and most importantly remember a lot of people in your situation managed to get sober, so you can as well

of the bigest shoves i get to head in the right direction

I have been struggling since the age of 13. Almost 25 years. Over the years there were times when it wasn't even a struggle, I simply gave in to my desires. The fact that you are fighting means a lot. Even after so long you still haven't given up!!! Very impressive!

Some say break free and others say surrender and let go. 
Hatzlacha friend.
