Hi I am new to this site and just beginning my recovery. I am an
exercise addict. Long story short, there was a family intervention
and I realized I am wasting my life running...literally. Choosing
my addiction over my husband and probably a future family due to
poor health. I finally have the desire to find a whole life. Does
anyone have any advice. I live in Miami..
