One thing that helps me, angie - is that if "one day at a time" is even too much, think of it as 'one hour at a time', or even 'five minutes at a time' if that's what it takes. If I remind myself that I'm allowed to go hour by hour instead of day by day - then I can get through those weak moments, stressful, want to pull my hair out moments.

Hi Angie,

I remember feeling like you are feeling now. Why didn't I see this coming? Why didn't I react before I caused problems with my health, my family? I didn't and that's it. I do believe that I went through all this for a reason. I had to reach my soul and the addiction brought me to a point, where my soul was all I had left. I am where I am supposed to be. And, Angie, you are right where you are supposed to be.
Anna is online now
