Hello to all!!!!  Thank you so very much for your out pouring love and support it means so much to me. I apologize for not being around much and i hesitate to say this but i will be honest, at times coming here where we all support each other and for the most part we all have hearts of gold at times i get triggered by posts and i just don't want to hear about drugs all the time, pills pills and pills it just gets to me.  I had a really hard time these last few months and barley made it this far, so i was being selfish and distancing myself from the forum.  

The past two years of my life has been a journey for sure, 2 years ago i went to rehab, best decision of my life i learned a ton about myself, and received so much therapy and i continue to use therapy to help me with the tools i need and to learn how to deal with life on lifes terms, i am still learning and still fighting but man oh man its so worth it.  After several relapses i finally made it this far, i am proud of myself but i know i am never done fighting but i also know it will get easier and better with more time.  

if i was to recap the past two years, i was a complete and utter mess on the verge of killing myself by over dose, all i wanted and cared for was my pills, my pills where my hero, my BFF, my love of my life they were my world, OH so i thought, then those beauties quickly became my enemy and i lost all control, i didn't care about anyone or anything all i cared about was my next high, then i put myself and my kids in danger, it took my dear loved ones right here on MH and y'all know who you are to give me a big kick in the a$$ and tell me to $h!t or get off the pot sort of speak and with great hesitation i finally listened and went to rehab.  I am a different girl now, i see life clearly, i can experience the joy of all the simple things in life like the sound of the birds the rain, the sun, i feel emotions some bad and some good, but like they say when there is dark there is light, you cant possible enjoy life high, you cant feel anything, being high is just going through the motions, but today and for the past year i have really been living.  It is worth the fight, the journey, the sweat and the tears, my family and i deserve ME and truly ME.  

I am so blessed to have come across this site and meeting some of the most wonderful people  ever, i am so grateful to you all for not giving up on me and for supporting me all the way.

Abundant blessings to all,
Dana
