Quotes
Serenity Prayer God, Grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change the things I can and the Wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardship as the pathway to peace. Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it. Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life, and supremely happy with Him forever in the next. Amen.

Everything had been getting to me lately. I didn't think things could get much worse.

But Yesterday me and a few mates went up town.

We were drinking Vodka straight, Mixing etc. We dont usually drink that much and we usually share 1 cigarette :|

And we smoked like 40 in a row. They were really rubbish, Cheap fags with next to no filter.

I was fine at the time, Just a bit tipsy. When I sobered up, I was fine. I regretted it obviously but I'm not usually like that and I thought all I had to do was forget about it and not do it again.

This morning I'm sitting here and I have really intense, Painful chest pains. I'm finding it hard to breathe.

I'm 14. I dont usually smoke really, One a week, Not even that.

What should I do?

I dont know if that is possible as he has done it for so long now but I need to try before my family leave him.

I am a 25 year old alcoholic and even though I have cut out a lot of my drinking I am still getting very bad problems and need some advice.

I suffer with chronic pancreatitis and would also be grateful if someone could tell me what problems to expect in the near and distant future.

I also have liver problems but not to sure to what extent.

I suffer terrible cold night sweats, severe tiredness and get a little confusion. I also get terrible pains on my upper right hand side which I need to take morphine based painkillers for.

I am getting worried about the extent of damage I may have done and would be grateful for any advice on what this might be and what I should do.

Thank you.

Mr Mike Reeves
I am a 23 year old alcoholic though I have cut my drinking down to twice a week due to chronic pancreatitis.

I have managed to do this by smoking cannabis every night a few hours before I go to sleep.

The problem is I have started to have mixed up feelings like suicidal and a lot of hate towards the people I really care about and I'm at the point where I'm getting very worried that I'm going to have some sort of breakdown.

I have tried suicide when I use to drink a lot and was very nearly successful and schizophrenia does run on my dads side of the family.

Can you please give me some advice on what I can do as I really feel as though I don't have much time left before I go out of my mind!

Thank you.
