Anybody else doing a self-harm sobriety?

Here’s my story: I was born with 5 brothers and 0 sisters. I have always been so lonely. I didn’t have anyone at home who I thought I could talk to, all my friends seem fake, my parents dont understand. My newly-adult brother has been in and out of Juvie for as long as I remember. I can always remember my youngest brother running downstairs to cry because my two older brothers we fighting. I just dont feel…enough.

That is tough. My siblings moved out of a toxic house as soon as they could, so I was lonely growing up too. I am not addicted to sh, but revert to it when I feel worthless. I have a lot of things that I thought would make me feel enough, husband, kids, job. But it has to come from within. It takes conscious effort, but it can be done, slowly but surely.
