I ask everyday why!!! And I have no answers
I just want help and some peace
Sometimes we have to fight a hard fight to obtain peace
Sometimes we don't realize that the answers have always been there, we are just asking the wrong questions because we can be scared of the real answers
I wanted help, wasn't receiving any, then I realized I was asking those I drank with regularly or I was asking toxic people in my life who wanted nothing but for me to stay miserable with them. I even asked myself for help, to change myself. What a joke that was, how was I going to help me, I was drinking every day, so sickly, so scared, angry, frustrated with me. And I was not strong enough to overcome my addiction on my own. I realized I had to asked those that could actually help me,and I received it. 22 years of drinking, 3 treatment centers later, and now I have almost 32 months sober. In these last few years, I have lived some of my very best life. Even when life throws wrenches at me, I am way more confident that I know how to cope, know how to learn. And know how to live better, know peace. One day at a time.
Help that is out there:
Treatment centers
