I relapsed last week after 4 years of sobriety. My vices are booze and uppers (coke, adderall)
I have been desperately stressed the last few weeks and used it as
an excuse. Ive been abusing adderall everyday since monday.
I dont know how im going to tell my girlfriend, mother of our beautiful 1 year old daughter, about what i’ve done. I feel like a failure as a partner and a father
Life is stressful and the devil never sleeps but you are not a failure... You have 4 years of sobriety don't let this lapse define the patner and the father you are...We are here to support you.
Justin, we learn from our relapses and can become wiser and stronger if we choose to.
I asked myself:
Where could I have done better?
Did I make my sobriety my number one priority? Over finance, romance and even family?
Did I give my sober program 100%
Am I being completely UPFRONT and honest with everyone and myself?
My truth will be revealed. Then i take the actions or I don’t.
Keep it simple.
I’m here if you want to talk
