Now I'm so grateful that I'm not waking up dope sick and having to hustle all day and night long . As well as I'm able to eat without being afraid of that feeling well will go away just as soon as I eat and this stands for sleeping too . I hated eating and sleeping because I knew what that meant . Sickness was soon to come . Back then I didn't even realize that I was already sick because of starving and staying awake ugh discusts me now . For the first 2 years anytime I didn't get my way or got into an argument with my abusive X husband my go too was to get high . Now when things don't go my way I deal with it and the best thing is that I'm normal my mind doesn't float in any way of those thoughts to get high or what it was like . I have also learned to not let no one put me down or put there hands on me and instead of sour thoughts staying in my mind . I forget about it and move on so amazing . My parents started giving me alcohol as a kid and my dad still drinks . Then my mother is still on opiates I had to make ve away from my family and I realize I actually had no real friends . But now I'm showing my parents that it's great to be clean and I'm showing them what a person can achieve in there sobriety . At first I didn't want them to ever come back into my life and while they don't know where I live . I'm trying to help them just by telling them the parts of my story that they had no idea I done and how to be positive and be there Role Model when they should have been a good Role Model for me . I'm hoping before they go out of this realm that they will get the freedom I now have . 🫴:dizzy::sparkles::sparkles::sparkling_heart::sparkling_heart::sparkling_heart::pray::100:
