I dont know what happened to me other then God must have been by my side all along, along with my Angel Baby Jason. I woke up today, still feeling the ramifications of the last week, embarressed , ashamed...All those things. Then suddenly it hit me. I seen myself in a different light. I seen myself the way I now believe others see me. I realized that I am a strong beautiful person that deserves to be loved. And for the first time in a very very long time, I felt happiness, I felt like I was so thankful to be alive and finally realized that I do not need alcohol or a man. I know I will still have hard times, but my faith is restored and my trust is in GOd

That is some wonderful news. I am so glad that you feel you deserve a good life. Because you do.

At the end of my drinking days I felt self destructive. I kept thinking why am I doing this to myself. And you now what? It was the same feeling you have right now. I am somebody and I deserve this for myself. That was 7 years ago, and I am still sober.

Thank's for posting this because I could relate.

Capegirl....

I am so happy for your experience...I would strongly encourage you to do

something. Sit down now and write down everything you felt and experienced

in those moments...then, in the future when you are down..and tempted to

think you never had a good sober day, you can look back and see that you

truly did..right in the beginning!


You are a strong and beautiful person and you do deserve to be loved . I

hope all newcomers who read this this will be encouraged by your post and

believe this for themselves as well.

And do we all have special angels? It seems you do. I think we all do.

My best you, dear CG.

Love,

IO

I know I will still have down days..But I am ready to accept loosing my son and try to finally get better instead of bitter. I am always on this board. Reading stories and having replys has helped so much. I am almost through the weekend without wanting to drink..I craved it once or twice and then I think about the crazy way it makes me.
