Today is 7 years to the day since my overdose. It’s been one journey, that’s for sure.
I’ve lost some ‘friends’.
Real friends stayed.
I’ve gained some real friends.
I’ve struggled. For years, the inner child in me waited to be saved and wanted help, all while I struggled.
I’ve given up drinking.
I’ve changed.
Special people have come into my life.
I’m not saying this for sympathy, because I’m not that person anymore. I’m saying this to hopefully inspire people to push through.
Remember, no matter how we feel, no one will ever come and save you. People will support and listen, but the real work starts with you. You can do it, one day at a time.
Be strong. Stick with it. This too shall pass.
