Unhappy It's been too long

It's been too long since I've posted on anything on here. Last time I posted I was 8 months pregnant struggling to stay cocaine free. Scared that if I picked up they would take my baby at the hospital. Thankfully I was able to stay clean and have a beautiful drug free daughter, that's now 15 months pouring crackers on the floor as I type this. Lol. Right after I had my baby couple days later I was right back to sniffing cocaine and dringing. I don't know what to do its like I live for this ****. I say I want help, I say I wanna stop, but obviously I'm not ready. I don't know what's wrong with me?

I am so glad that you have checked in, 914born and am so very happy to hear that your baby was born healthy and non-addicted. I have often thought of you and your baby.

I am so sorry to hear that you are struggling. Have you thought of joining an SR Class? I'll post a link in a minute.

inspire

Good job staying clean and sober during your pregnancy, hon. That is a big deal and you should be proud. Our children start to motivate us from the womb, do they not? My kids are grown now and mid life comes with its own set of newer issues, but my kids still motivate me to be the best person I can be. I hope I raised them right and I think I mostly did, but no one is perfect. You've proven you CAN do this. Maybe you just need some fresh inspiration?

Welcome back! It is great that you stayed sober and drug free during pregnancy. I have three kids and I was sober during pregnancies and nursing, but kept going back to drinking. I am just about 8 months sober and I have been so much more present for my kids and at work.

Logging on here and reading daily has been my greatest support system. Try checking in each day, and post before you decide to use or drink. It really does help.

Join the August class, check in daily on the 24 hour thread. You can do this!!!
