Struggling…
My dsufhter wascspprehended in huky sbd ive been completely broken since
I’ve been sad. I’ve been depressed and angry, reckless and dangerous and careles. Ive done Everything and anything I can do to numb the pain. I get one day a week for an hour and a half. When it used to be her and I every single second of every single day.

Ive tried to end my life. Had myself committed, medicstions, illegal drugs, stealing, careless s**.

Nothing numbs this pain. Has snyone been through this?

If you’re gonna comment, please don’t write things like it’ll get better you’ll get her back, etc.. I need real talk.

Kiersten, I’ve been through worse and seen many similar situations to yours. The only way I’ve seen them work out is getting sober/clean and staying clean. Then it’s just a matter of time until things get better. It’s rather simple.
Do the work in sobriety and things get better, don’t do the work and things get worse!

  1. Go to AA/NA meetings every morning and night.
  2. Stay clean no matter what!!!
  3. Get a sponsor and complete the 12 steps, listen to your sponsor.
  4. Help out whenever you can.
  5. Meet and make friends with people in the sober community that are in the solution, not the efffing problem.
  6. Keep it simple
  7. Be happy
  8. Repeat 1-7
    I’m here if you want to talk

I’m glad you’re still here. You don’t have to sugarcoat anything, the way you’re feeling makes sense with what you’ve been carrying. You shouldn’t have to sit in all of this alone. If you want to talk through any part of it, I’m here with you.
