MDJunction to me

grandmasylvia"MDJ has been "a soft place to fall" for me as Dr Phil says. I have this very painful rare disease Dercum's Disease and take comfort in finding others here who share their knowledge and compassion. Many
members have helped me just by understanding my anguish and validating
my pain. We are working together to encourage research toward a cure.

You found it, here you can get the support and help you need and want.You can also get advice you need to kick your addiction, Just tell us your story, what drug are you addicted to, do you want to quit, how much a day are you doing. Knowing what you are doing will help us help you.

I did all kinds of drugs, starting w/ pot at 14 but cocaine was my drug of choice. That is when the fun in doing drugs was over and my life became a nightmare. You will hear similar stories here, many have gone thru detox and are able to help you thru their experiences. The group leaders babies and frenchie are great, very compassionate and understanding, so you have found the place to get the support and advice you need. Hope to hear from you soon

Yes, you have come to the right place. A lot of people here have been through the same thing as you. We are all here to help, not judge. Here, you have the freedom to talk about whatever you'd like, whatever helps you through and doesn't help.

Detoxing from different kinds of drugs is different. Can you tell us what drug you want to detox from? then maybe we can help you or maybe we can just be here for you. Either way, I'm glad you are here. jenn
