Acheleus

So I posted before about my sexual health. Today I found out I am clean and I am very glad to not have any std from my cheating ex gf. Im trying to heal from an abusive relationship. At seven months sober I feel a little worried about my mistakes in sobriety but today I stayed sober. Thank you everyone on here who helped me when I was scared.

So glad to hear that Acheleus and good going on staying sober.
We all make mistakes and recovery is not always a straightforward smooth route but as long as we don't drink or drug we have a chance to handle whatever is thrown our way.

It is scary to think the risks that female alcoholics take on when they drink so much that they do not know what is happening to them. I love my ex and I wish she would get sober and healthy so she can have a good life. I have blocked the number and I hope she does not hurt herself while drinking. This experience has made me sad but I have also grown up a lot. She may not know who she has had sex with and it makes me sad. I miss her even though she hurt me and I hurt her. We were unhealthy in some of the same ways and it almost felt like having someone that understood your own insecurities and fears. I feel horrible about it all. She kept calling and texting so I blocked the number. I do not think I will ever be the same.

You won't ever be the same. We are all the sum of our experiences. I have made many poor decisions in my life, and many good ones. They all combine to make me who I am today, good and bad.

You can learn from this, and move on. Trust me; after many breakups and two divorces, I know.
