I have been struggling go maintain sobriety since I started just trying to get sober almost 6 years ago now. I started using substances when I was 12, and would say my physical dependency to opiates was realized and daily life became contingent on my supply of substance, around the age of 15. Now I am almost 25, and have been desperately trying to avoid this hell since a young age, realizing quickly this lifestyle would make achieving my goals impossible, and now realizing that after trying all conventional methods of rehabilitation, I am prone to relapse and unsuccessful bouts of short sobriety. Please, I am at the end of my road. If I cannot figure out some way to restrain my addiction and align with the true potential I have harbored since my adolescent years, I fear that my days are now very numbered, and worse, that my life will have been a waste of what could have been used to help so many others. 

I want to start a trauma advocacy group for men. Men that have experienced one or a combination of the three major traumas or abuses, and give them an outlet to reclaim their independence and reclaim their confidence as strong men part of a collective, not isolated by fear. 

Please, help me get back to being the person I so desperately know I am. 

Feel free to reach out at any point for further information or a detailed medical history.

Thank you, for your time, and consideration.
