Angry relapse

Hey everyone, today I am not doing so good, I had my first grandson two weeks ago, and my daughter told me Sunday I couldn't not see him til I got help, I only do it when I am around it. If I could get a job n a home my life would b doing a turn around. I have lost my sister, aunts cousins and now my grandson. I had 10/hlf yrs clean, til last October, I hit bottom quick didn't make it til April and I went too detox, done me well, got me off the pain meds, but the cravin for speed which meth does for me. Always bit me in but, because I didn't come up after detox. I also started loosin family n friends that I trusted wit everything and would give me wise tails. Great advise.i don't feel that I need recovery, feel I need My God here wit me that I have turn my back too, I am scared too go too him, like I should, I need someone too push me back in the front doors of church and the rooms, get involved. New play grounds and pate mate

Have you tried to call AA and get a ride to a meeting? Get back in the rooms and pray!

Welcome to SR, newlife. You will find an abundance of support, encouragement and understanding here.

Congratulations on your new grandson; it must be very difficult not to see him. Your daughter is now a mother herself and she is reacting as mothers do - they instinctively protect their children; hope is not lost - you have been clean before (10 years is fantastic) and you can do it again.

You mentioned that you could turn your life around if you could get a job and home; could it be just the opposite (and I offer this question with the utmost compassion) - if you turned your life around by becoming clean again, the job and home could become a possibility???

Maybe, give detox another round; walk back through those church doors - sit down and listen and absorb; go to AA/NA meetings; rehab?

Keep posting, newlife. The people here really do care and want to see you succeed and be happy.

I hope you can begin to live a sober life. Your daughter is protecting her child as well as she can. It's up to you to step up and make the changes you need to make to be able to know your new grandson.
