Good morning. How’s everyone ? Any fun plans today or this weekend? I’m in IL my day to day is being a full time SAHM of 4. I’m exhausted! But not as exhausting as active addiction was that’s for sure!! I’m so grateful for my recovery & clean time. As I always say there’s being clean/ clean time & then there’s being clean, having & adding
Clean time while IN true recovery. And recovery is so beautiful!!! At times I get bullied for being in recovery and told my past defined me. I get told “You didn’t get clean until you found out you were pregnant . Yeah you immediately got into treatment but so what? You were homeless and using and got pregnant and that defines you because you didn’t get clean the minute you GOT pregnant! No..you got clean the moment you FOUND OUT you were already pregnant. And that makes your baby a demon baby and you the devil. You should be ashamed and not proud .”
Yeah I was told THAT ^^ recently as well as when I was pregnant & it really got to me! Now? I tell it how it is;
“Hey well
Thanks for just reminding me that all you got on me is my..age old PAST! Just proves I got better, continually get better and grow as I’m never cured, and sadly..you got bitter .”
This person told me when I was using that I would never get clean or stay clean etc. i truly feel they’re just angry bcuz I proved them wrong and they can’t return or exchange their abuse upon myself. But oh well! I today will stay commited to never allowing that persons abuse effect me I will work hard on being proud
Of myself for going no contact with them and knowing I made the best , safest, healthiest , smartest, most wise, most loving, most protective choice!!’ Not only for ME! But also for my children. As they tell my kiddos horrible lies about me and do PA
