I’d probably start by changing your thought process and mindset. Believe in yourself, recite your goals and wants to yourself daily in the mirror. Have faith!

If I can do it Steve then you can to trust me.My question is do you really want it or not.You decide andcif you do go to treatment but if you don't then don't take up a bed that someone who believes they can make it needs. Sorry to be so harsh but you know exactly what I'm saying if you have done this that many times.

Hey, I’ll be honest, I’ve been to treatment more times than I can count. There were moments I thought I’d never get it, but today, I’m almost 7 years sober.

I stayed connected to people who had strong recovery. I leaned in when I wanted to run. I let people walk with me until I could stand on my own, and that’s why this space is here.

I promise, you’re not a waste of time. You’re someone who wants this.

We’re gonna be here for you when you get out and as long as it takes.

You can always DM me too.

I just did like 10 months at a sober living facility and I'm truly off of it all. Got to piece my life together at the same time. We're blessed so long as we have that desire (and bless others).

Steve I know that if I could do it you can to.I had a friend in my using days whos name was Steve sanders and if you are like the friend I had he was very strong and stubborn. I think you might just be him so get to it bud I know you will succeed if you have to try 14 times just like I did over 40 years and I'm 10 months now.You got this ok :ok_hand:

Never a waste of time, it took me 3 years of relapsing and broken relationships until I had a relentless desire to get back in the rooms of AA fellowship and reconnect with my Higher power. Don't give up on yourself and go do what you need to do :pray: you got this :+1:

That’s never a waste of time. That’s what they’re there for. The simple fact that you haven’t given up and are still here to go back is a blessing. When you see everything through black lenses it’s gonna seem really dark and gloomy. Look through some clear glasses and suddenly everything changes. It’s starts with your mindset and then your community. Don’t focus on the amount of times you’ve been to treatment. Focus on what you stopped doing for your recovery the first time and then focus on what you’re going to do differently. NEVER forget to be GRATEFUL.

You've got to want the recovery, in order for it to work.
As bad as u wanted to get high ,getting sober is the same its doing work and staying committed
