i'm sure you want to be the healthiest mum you can be
and would give anything for them
you might have gotten yourself into a jam and may need some help out
we know that these addictions make us better through out the day
but really there's something else about my mum
even though she's gotten help
and getting treated with pills
when i talk to her now
it's like where did my mum go?
i don't know how to explain it
but i'd rather she just be getting talk therapy
than using anysort of pills
also, i can definitely say that getting of addictions really sucks in the beginning
i can hide out in my place and try to do that
if not i will honestly have to go to a hospital
being in the same surroundings ever day and seeing the same people may not be what i want around me while i go through the detox phase
i hope i have not offended you
but i still prefer my real mum
to my pilled mum
yes caveat: i am new to recovery & don't know what i'm talking about, but somehow i imagine you sober caring for your children.
i know, because i have taken all kinds of drugs & alcohol, though for the last many years only alcohol, that i've always seen
there has been a much truer quality to my emotions & being when i have been sober than when i have been not
regardless of what they will tell you, i think most kids truely want the love that come from sober/real mom.
it doesn't have to be there every second, but it never gets real enough with all these medications. for me. sorry for babbling away on your thread.
yes, i'm trying to get sober too.
