Helpless

I've been going to rehabs, PHP, IOP, and sober livings I feel like I'm stuck in the system. I do great staying sober and clean. I am homeless. I dont need another program that even I could teach. I need a stable home!! :sob: No more moving place to place scared of living in the streets ever again. I need some help I don't know what to do. I've been misplaced since my man passed away 2 years ago. It feels like an eternity since anything was back to a new normal.

I've been where you are exactly but that was 30 years ago. I got out of a rehab only to go to a homeless shelter. It was easier to get a line than a sandwich! But I tried to think back how I got back on my feet but truth is i didn't for a long while...but the next time I went to rehab I went to transitional housing straight after treatment and stayed there for almost a year. I surrendered my will to God every day and then small miracles began to happen for me and i got a job that I didn't qualify for and then a trailer to rent that didn't have to have good credit and first last and deposit came open for Mr then a lady from church let me get a car off her lot with barley down and payments I could afford. It was nothing short of God opening doors for me because I stayed clean, worked a program of recovery and turned my will and my life over to God and asked fir His will in my life. It all comes to surrender and trusting Him! Sadly I took the blessings for granted and after some time lost it all again but that was my doing by thinking I could get high again. It's a battle every day but I know if I do this God will help me. He never turns His back on us, it's us that walk away from Him! My heart goes out to you. I'll be praying for you. Recovery is possible. I have to humble myself, be grateful for what I do have, truly want to be clean in my heart and work hard to get it by using all the tools I've learned in 4 treatments 3 outpatients and 4 detoxes. Peace and joy always follow once I surrender. This time I'm praying I won't ever get complacent again and take for granted the very thing I worked so hard to get this time! Prayers going up for you sis, stay strong, humble and kind. You can too be happy. Trust in your Heavenly Father. He loves you :heart:
