I’m saying just some friendly advice. 25 years ago, when I walked into the AA rooms, I was upset and angry at myself because I was wondering how I got there.
I knew it was my behavior and my actions, and not being able to control my alcohol consumption, I didn't want to believe it, but it was true.
I spent some time in the rooms, of AA, and I embedded the skills and tools to stay strong throughout my life. but I wasn't ready to change.
The number one rule in recovery is no relationships, I mean, you've got to find out who you are and build your life all over again before you can love somebody else, and that was my downfall.
I started understanding more and more.
The last time I became sober was 13 years ago. I walked into detox, never looking back, and stayed away from relationships. I’m still single because I can't handle jealousy, and people want you down, because they are mad they can't use and abuse you.
I’ve been through more than you can ever know, but we all have but to strive keep going forward is amazing. I’ll be graduating with my bachelors in this spring semester. When , I share my story, I want to recognized; after everything I’ve been through.
I’m saying learn those skills and tools stay away from dead beats, and no relationships. If nobody’s for you and cannot support you; you do not need to be around them.
Take heed to the people you are around.
Goodnight.
