Hi my sober warriors,
My family is trying to silence me and my story. They keep telling me that everybody is seeing my posts so I have to stop posting about my story and my addiction and that’s not their choice and I don’t even know what to say because I’m not gonna be silenced anymore, like I was in Rehab. I don’t know what to do. I wanna tell my story. I wanna help others. I have every right to tell my own story.

They don't understand that you are helping others by telling your story. If it helps you don't ever stop. Let them know that if you don't it is like not taking your medicine when you are sick.

It's your sobriety, and you are helping countless others with your story. I'm sorry to hear that your family doesn't understand, I completely understand that, yet you're being the bigger person by doing what's right by and for you. Thanks for sharing, Emilia! You're gonna be great, keep going!!
Same! My family asked me not to discuss anything on social media (or disclose any information to anyone that knows us) For a while I felt embarrassed and ashamed because of it. I didn’t feel they supported me the way I needed them to. After a while I realized its not up to them and I reached a point where I don’t care what others think of me. I have a problem. Its part of me and my journey. My suggestion is to do whatever you feel is right and whatever helps you stay sober. After a while, they came around and they respected my decision.

Expressing your feelings is one , telling ng your story can get judgmental to some , and worst of all may trigger others. We all have our background stories a lot different some similarities but I think that we have all in common is we r sober. Sobriety date Feb 2nd

True true but someone that wants help will reach out someone that needs the help it's up to there strength of willpower to want the change and sobriety
Do what is good for you and the right people will stick with you It's understandable that your family finds it hard to hear and read but if it's what you need to recover they will have to accept it. Your recovery comes first. Whether they like it or not.
Tell your story I'll read it
