Welcome to Ask an Addict

AskanAddict.com is intended to provide addiction support and advice in a non-judgmental way so that the addict or anyone else that's been affected by an addict, will know there are many who understand and eliminate the feeling of being alone.

Ask an Addict knows it may be hard to talk with family and friends, as many times they just don’t understand. Many have fractured those important relationships in life during active addiction. When it comes to seeking information, likeness, and establishing a strong recovery program, who better to ask than someone who has been there? 

At Ask an Addict we listen and learn, together. Whether you're an addict, a recovering addict or have been affected by an addict, we all have that common denominator of addiction.

If I had to use one word to describe our members, it would be the word compassion. (sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it)

How's everyone been doing?

I wanted to see if any of the old members are still on here? I would be interested to see how you've been and where life has taken you?

Since my last post, I have had 3 more people close to me overdose and die. In the last year, my youngest son was hooked on pills and completed a 30 day stint in rehab and has been clean for a little over 3 months now and he has been going to meetings and working the programs. So far so good. (Keeping fingers crossed)

It would be great to hear from some of you guys!
