Description: It’s finally time we talk about the elephant in the room. Five months ago I went to rehab and really took some time to just focus on myself and my health where I wanted my life to go. I found out alot about myself and the things I do and why. Patterns I learned in my childhood I trauma I didnt even realize I had. The truth is finally coming out, why you guys have seen so many changes in me and my inconsistencies. It feels so good to get this off my chest. I love you guys so much thank you for all of the support through the years. IF YOU'RE STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION, THERE IS HOPE. IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN. There's no such thing as too far gone, there's no such thing as a hopeless case. Recovery is possible for everyone. National Substance Abuse Hotline: 1-800-662-HELP (4357) National Domestic Abuse Hotline: Call 1-800-799-7233 womenshealth.gov/relation... IF YOU HAVE LOVED ONES STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION/ALCOHOLISM: PLEASE consider going to Al-Anon! This is a free, fully anonymous program for NON ADDICTS affected by the disease. Basically, if a toll is being taken on your life in any way due to a struggling addict in your life (Rather it be your partner, brother, sister, mom, grandpa, friend, etc) this program is made for you. It's a place you can go that helps you heal from any pain, let go of any resentments, gain knowledge about why things have happened in your relationship with the addict, etc. It is not a place for addicts, but a place for the loved ones of addicts. This place does not work around making a victim out of the addict. You do not even have to have the addict in your life currently or ever again to truly benefit from this program. These meetings are always locally run, and some flow better than others based on your personality. I'd highly suggest googling Al-Anon (NOT AA, this is different) meetings in your area and attending one, and if you don't like it, try another one the next time you're free. I have heard nothing but amazing comments from people who have attended. It truly helps you understand what is happening in the addicts brain, and provides you with a safe understanding environment so share and heal. And if you have been affected by an addict, you absolutely deserve clarity and to heal.
