Im a 40 year old pretty easy going guy, married with 2 children. I experimented with perscription pain medication a few years ago and didnt think getting addicted would happen to me. I was wrong. Ive been having a very difficult time staying sober. I know I have a problem but for some reason cant get modivated to be an active participant in seeking the help I need. I read alot about recovery programs online and can across this site and felt a connection right away. Now im sitting here writing why Im here. Im hoping with wide variety of experiences I have read in different profiles that I will gain the support I need to get pointed in the right direction and stop feeling the shame I feel everyday. I have went to NA meetings and didnt feel like I fit in ( again my shame and denial ). Im sure most have been there and can give me the support I need to manage my problem. Im a caring person and have always helped others and now I realize I need help myself. I have a great job and a wonderful family. Lately I feel things are getting out of control and I have too much at stake to continue in the direction I am taking. I will add more to this section later I just wanted to get started and give a brief description to start with.

I like cool fall evenings, listening to my daughter laugh, quiet evenings at home doing nothing, drives in the country.

If I name too many dislikes I might sound too negative so Ill keep it short. Rude drivers, disrespectful teenagers, greedy people, dishonesty,people that complain alot.
