I never thought

I could or would make it this far. I may only be a week sober but my mind set is completely different than everr before. I don't want to use. I don't think of it as a cure for this pain anymore. It honestly more so scares me to think of using. Which is right were I wanted to be. I've been thru it. If you've been following my posts you'll know what I mean. It's been tough every step has step fight. Since 2009 I've been off and on using. Thru pregnancy for a week or so and sadly after. It sickens me to think of that but it's my reality. I believe we have to go thru a lot before am gaining strength to gain our sobriety. And I sure have been. I want everyone to know it is possible. And it IS soooooo worth it. Please think about the future and where you want to be. I know where I want ad need to be. And I won't stop till I get there  an I really owe it to a lot of you for getting me thru it. So thank you! I love you all.
