Substance Abuse Recovery

This Board was born out of a concept one of our Members has about helping others who have walked down the dark lonely path of substance abuse. Now here are some important things to consider about this Board:

1. This Board deals with Substance Abuse Addictions only. For sexual abuse or other forms of addictions you will need to request permission from the Administrator after you have made 30 or more constructive posts within the Community.

2. Substance abuse relates to Drugs, Alcohol, Smoking, etc. Addiction to food should be dealt with in the Health Board, while Gambling and Fetishes are handled in the Mature Boards.

3. Search FIRST before starting a new topic. Do not repeat yourself by trying to place your problem above others by saying that you used harder drugs or drank more than someone else - this is not a competition.
