Proof number 1 and the one that has always stood out to me since you joined this Talking Sober community 2 years ago:
You are a devoted and loving mother. I know a lot of mothers and there’s a million ways to be a mom but I see in you - you are like beaming with love for your kids. Like this:
Proof number 2:
You keep trying.
You’re like someone climbing a mountain and you have stumbled sometimes but you Do. Not. Give. Up.
The fact you keep coming back here means in your heart you know what you need to do. You know that getting healthy (sober and clean) is what will make everything else possible for you. If you’re sober and clean, you can do everything that matters to you: motherhood, family, relationships. You can do it.
I know you’ve tripped up. Something needs to change, yes. Maybe you join a group and go. Maybe you join a virtual one if you can’t get there physically. Online meeting resources or Resources for our recovery
You know this matters to you. What do you do when something matters to you? You go for it. You go for it and you do whatever you can to make it happen and that also means you keep trying and trying even if it’s not perfect and -
You make it. Anyone who’s that determined, makes it.
You are one determined mother @Gonzolady. You will do it.
