I’ve been lying to EVERYONE and myself for a very long time now. My friend’s funeral was today and him passing away has hit me pretty hard not only because he’s gone but that I could be gone tomorrow also. He passed from a heart attack at 40 years old. And not because he had a bad heart either. I hate myself when I look at my son and Lie right to him. I couldn’t even imagine how he would feel if that was me

I’m very sorry for your loss. One of the best things about recovery I’ve gained is not lying to anybody anymore. The lying stops when the recovery starts.
You can make it through taking it one day at a time. The days get easier and life gets better in recovery. Best wishes to you.

Secrets keep us sick! Get honest and start recovery.
Sorry about the loss of your friend. I found my close friend dead from alcoholism in very early sobriety. Instead of drinking, I used her death as fuel in my own recovery. I didn’t want to be another statistic, leaving my daughter motherless. I was lucky to get a another chance at life and I needed to make the most of it.
Wishing you the best on your journey!
