" It has given me a place to vent, a place to reach out to others & it has been a place where I can just read. It has helped me to keep myself in check. It has reminded me of my dark days so that I stay greatful for the life I have now. Best part is that there are no times constrictions. "

" a place to vent, write things down and look back at them and see things differently, so its given me a better understanding rather than just ignoring i gues, its gd to help other ppl, to talk to ppl from a different life, background, country, age, gender, its quite diverse community i think, which i have gainned alot from. its hard to distinguish whether this site has helped me or i have changed but i think the support group has a slice of that pie x "

" Hello Pal!
This might not be the biggest group of DS but we are fantastic.
I feel like at home here.
This is one of the few places where I can express how I feel as an addict and get support as well. "

" I have gotten a lot of great advice from people on this site. I may not always follow through with it, but their advice and reading other peoples journals, experiences sticks in my mind. I really believe this site and others that people on here have recommended are helping me. It helps me not feel so frustrated, so hopeless. I am still a work in progress. "
