Hi I’m Trina I’m an addict and an alcoholic to day I am 41 days clean and it feels good but sometimes scary I’m so scared that I’m going to go back to the person I used to be I ave been having those dreams of me using again and I don’t want to I’m so scared I’m going to fail I know that I’m determined not to cuz there was a time I didn’t love myself I really didn’t know how to love myself I used to want to escape reality but I see now that their ain’t no way to do that and I must face my fears head on and deal with my past and what’s been haunting me I feel so bad that my mother didn’t get a chance to see me sober while she was living she just past on October 25 and I think that’s my biggest regret but I’m doing this for my self first cause I finally love myself I love my kids unconditionally n my higher power whom I call god I just know that if I ever feel weak I just gotta keep praying and journal and get to a meeting or call somebody and another thing I need a sponsor so thanx for letting me share

Thank you for sharing. Getting everything out there sometimes takes away the fear and the power we sometimes give to the fear. I am also sorry to hear about your loss. It can be scary when we start anything new regardless of how motivated we are in our thoughts and actions. From what I read it sounds as though you're on the right path and headed in the correct direction. Keep up the good work. :slightly_smiling_face:

Amazing share. Buried my father 2/5/22. I stopped drinking before his hospice so he passed with me sober. But Im back again now that he passed and trying to get it together. You are definitely an inspiration.
