i can't stop.

[Mark]

i recently had a relapse on my prescription medication (ritalin). i went
right onto meth and it's been over a month i have found that i simply can
not get myself to stop.

i have everything to lose. i recently got my first apartment in years, and
here i am using again. in the past i found stopping the easy part, staying
stopped was the hard part.

i don't know why i'm posting this. i've never even been to a news group
before. oh well. say a prayer for me.

Why would you want to post info that either isn't true or which, if
true, could be considered free publicity for this particular business
? As I'm incapable of reading your mind, I could not answer a reply
in which anyone asks: "Why not ?" :^)

Best regards

PS:; Clearly, I should have said either:

"As I'm incapable of reading anyone's mind, I could not answer a reply
> in which anyone asks: "Why not ?" :^)"

or

"As I'm incapable of reading your mind, I could not answer a reply
> in which you ask: "Why not ?" :^)"

(smiling)

Maybe, my error will not make much difference to your answer :^)

But, you did reply to my reply;-)

Anyway, I chose to repost the info (that incidentally you reposted
too;-) because, taken with her prolific Usenet pleas for private
communication, it is indicative of vested interest on rosie's part.

The evidence is that Mark is probably a drug addict. Personally, I
don't believe a drug addict could also be an alcoholic of my type, and
I don't choose to bother much with any other type.

If Mark recognises the probability of counter productive vested
interest, well and good. If Mark chooses to be recruited by rosie, at
least that should restrict the time available for rosie to play her
games with those for whom this group is named, alcoholics and/or those
who wish to discuss alcoholism.

LOL. I admire those with ability to spot things that many would not
and also those who give me food for thought :^)

Get your ass to a treatment center or hospital so you can detoxify Mark!
Before you get out call the doctor who prescribed the Ritalin for you and
tell him/her what happened and ask that your prescription be changed. BE
BRUTALLY HONEST WITH YOURSELF THIS TIME. There are dozens of drugs that work
for ADD now and you don't need to use Ritalin if it causes you to relapse.
