I finally reached my breaking point with alcohol. I set my whole life on fire, I didn't realise how bad things had got. 2 of my kids now live with their dad, I almost lost my job and college course, I have been to court twice for repossession of my home because I don't pay my bills. There are days where I've spent all my money on alcohol and not provided food for my 16yo who lives with me. My addiction came from mental health issues and it completely blew them up into something completely unmanageable. I've been putting in the work to put my life back on track the past few weeks and I'm having more sober days than not. But it doesn't erase how terrible I've been in my addiction. I let down the people who mattered most. Rebuilding and fixing everything I broke is gonna be hard and slow but I'm putting one step in front of the other every day and I'm seeing the difference, other people are seeing the difference, and its motivating me to keep achieving. I don't know why I've wrote this, I suppose I hope to reassure myself i'm not in this alone. 😘
