Gammie. I guess we are pretty lucky our husbands are so great to us.. even if we dont see it now. I dont want to be running all day ne more. I want my baby girl to remember mommy being fun all the time not just sometimes n somedays she was locked up in her bed. I better get this done now while she is this young. Your right depression is cancer to the soul. I believe its in my blood line tho. I really cant remember a time i had soo much fun wo a pill a drink a line .. i keep trying to tell myseld you not a "lifer addict" but i am. I am and always will be. One day i will tell me family but it will be when i am clean. I will be proud to say i am an addict but i been clean for xx amount of time. N i know today i will not use n i am happy about that.. i guess i just need to get there first. Day 3 night and day 4 have been by far the wost.. i pray so hard to let day 5 and 6 have a genunine smile on my face. Sry for the incorrect spelling.
I'm going thru what you are...my son keeps asking me questions cause I'm basically living in my bath tub. I feel the same guilt as I have been on these for over 10 years.
I decided to change when I saw a picture of me n my kids when they were young and realized that was the last time they saw mommy sober.
My kids are all grown up except the 14 yr old at home so I missed out on way too much and have hurt them n can't take it back. I wish I had realized sooner what I was doing please hang in there with me I also asked my hub to go get me just 1 so I could break it in half only for him to stand firm....I'm pissed as all get out at him rifht now but I try to remember he wabts the old me back...they all do.
I just wish I knew who she was cause I've forgotten by now.
Don't feel guilt its a cancer on our soul
