Hi all, :wavey: I'm going to introduce myself the easy way by answering Electric Prophet's questions. :wink: Are there any support groups in your area? like NA or AA?

Hi. Sounds like you gave well-thought-out, responsible answers to the questions. I don't know you at this point, but I can offer perhaps a piece of humanity to this moment: I don't know if you have someone who loves you, but you probably do. Even if not, there are people who care, such as other buss...
