Great share. I know it is an amazing feeling to go from being a total and complete liability to your loved ones. To being a productive contributing member of the family.
Man..The things I would put my grams through. Always taking more and more. Not just her but many others. I have felt like the lowest POS so many times. And yet the drugs still won all that over.
Now, and especially this attempt at recovery has been absolutely phenominal. I never wanted anything more than to make my gram proud of me. To be able to do things for her. To stop depending on her and sucking the life out of her.
I am growing into a responsible adult, taking care of bills and doing things, even the little things for her. It feels good to tell her "Dont worry about it. I will take care of it." And know I can and will.
I havent seen my gram without worry ever in my life. Until lately.
I am proving myself to her more and more everyday. And the rest of my family as well.
I am becoming a person that they can rely on and not have to worry about if I will come through or not.
Feeling like that is the best feeling in the world.
Just keep doing the right thing. Keep showing with your actions that you are making those changes and in time, trust will come back to you.
Your a good person and you have alot to be grateful for. I know it all will be as it should if you stay the course.
Great job there buddy.
