Family pulled an intervention on me
24 yrs.ago after I had a horrible accident
with my car in Feb. 1990 hitting a concrete
culvert sitting on top the ground, spending
10 days in the hospital recoverying very well
within a few months with medicine only.
No alcohol.
Then in August 1990 I picked up a drink which
led me right where I left off of in February
and tried to end my life because I felt like
a failure.
Family made some calls and went thru
some steps where the court ordered
me into rehab for testing for my mental
state, which was found to be fine but
had an addiction problem to alcohol.
I remained in rehab for 28days being
taught about my addiction it had to
my mind, body and soul and those
around me. They gave me a program
of recovery consisting of steps and
principles to incorporate in my everyday
life each day I remained sober.
Today, I am still living by those recovery
tools which has taught me to be happy,
honest and healthy in all areas of my life.
For me, my family did for me what I
wasn't able to do for myself 24 yrs ago
and for that help I have my life back and
am blessed and grateful for it.
