Grateful huh? Well I am off Meth. Trying to enjoy

Grateful huh? Well I am off Meth. Trying to enjoy my life one day at a time.i have problems because of my addictions. I had been clean for 14 years from a promise i made. That person died i relapsed and been struggling since. That was about 23 years ago. Wasnt planned that way i think the devil had something to do with it or God. I need friends that are clean and have a desire to be saved and to learn how to live for the true God ot just nurture me with my walk and perhaps i can do wimn you on to yhe Lord. There is life after death trust me you dont want to go to the grave without going to heaven.

What makes it so difficult the recovery or the high or is it the so called high

I've been struggling with sobriety for the past few months now. I have been sober off and on for 4 years. But if I'm being honest with myself, I haven't really been sober at all. I've just had successful moments of abstinence followed by moments of despair, where I feel that the only thing that will make my pain feel better, is using. I would love to go to a rehab, that is long-term, but every time I talk about it my spouse has a meltdown. He thinks that I'm going to find somebody better than him if I were to go to a rehab. When ultimately my only goal is to be able to hug and kiss my children again and be a mother to them. I also want to go to college and that a bachelors in social work or a degree in addictions and start my own addictions facility, to help people like us, but I can't do that if I'm not completely sober. A lot of people will say that I need to get rid of my spouse, because he's the one who suggested that I use fentanyl to cure my pain. My argument is that it was my choice to keep using it, which it was. He has the desire to get better, deep down. He wants to go to college to be a nurse, and also wants to start a facility with me. In reality I know what I really have to do, but I just feel like it's unreachable at this time.

Yes I am okay. You?

Like what do you do when you do when you are hurting physically or mentally and need a break. Dr

Drugs and alcohol gives you that break even though things will usually get worse.

After 20+ years of banging my head, the gift of desperation and a spiritual connection became the catalyst for my sobriety. I realized I needed to aim for inner balance and keep each part of myself in a somewhat peaceful place. Yeah right, I thought but it worked. That’s when I started my self-discovery journey.

Who am I after all these years of being disconnected from myself? Some days, I’d kick, scream, and cry, unable to understand why I did the things I did. I felt every emotion and there were moments I thought, what’s the point? But I forced myself to reach out and talk about it.

In those moments, I found that helping someone else in their struggle was the antidote to my own. So, I did just that. Anytime I saw someone struggling, I reached out. Through that, I started to learn a lot about myself. I went to school, read books, listened to podcasts, worked on programming, and committed to therapy. I had to teach myself how to live the right way and how to manage my emotions. I’m still working that same program.

You’re right there is life after the chaos! YOU GOT THIS!

Going well

You can do it . I cried out to God said don't know I am for really asking you to get me off this Meth and he did
