...and I don't want it to be true. However, the reality is that I'm an addict. I'm still an addict and I'm always going to be an addict. This much I know. I'm really hoping that it gets easier at some point.
I am too hungover to talk more about it tonight, but I commit to more information tomorrow. I'm sad and overwhelmed and unfortunately, most importantly, an addict. I believe in the program more than myself right now, but I do believe in the program.
Please just don't judge and send me some love, but no comments tonight. Tomorrow's fair game.
Love, elly
I support you and love you for who you are!

I once saw an interview with Elton John talking about the various addictions he's battled. He was asked what the hardest one to overcome was, and his response was "food!" You can live perfectly well without drinking, smoking, or using drugs, but you have to eat to live.
ReplyDeleteYou've taken the first and most important step for any addict, admitting you have a problem. I would be shocked if there's even one among us who has never fallen off the wagon for a day or a week...or a month...or a….etc.
It's not how you fall but how you get back up that's important. What I'm reading in your post is the strength of someone who knows what they want and is willing to pick themselves up from a mistake to get there. It's all about persistence, not perfection
Love you unconditonally
