There are some folks that are successful in learning
to live life sober on their own and there are others
who have tried countless times, including me, and
just couldn't get it. Tried and failed too many times.

So, many have taken the step and entered
themselves into treatment to have those
capable, stronger, more knowledgeable to
teach us about our addiction and give us the
tools to take home with us to incorporate
in our daily lives.

For some of us who need that help, that
extra care, support, understanding, communication,
whatever we were lacking and couldn't get
it on our own, placed ourselves into those
hands for help.

I didn't get the help on my own at first
because I didn't think I was that sick.
As stubborn as I was, never needing help
from others, wanting to do it myself, was
in complete denial, sick in my addiction
disease to see thru the fog, that my loved
ones sought the help for me.

It was them doing for me what I couldn't,
didn't want to do for myself. They saved
my life because they cared that much
for me.

If you want to live and not die then go
get help and enter a recovery program
with face to face professionals and not
the computer.

Sending love, care and concern your way.
