Missing my babies while in rehab

I’m really needing some motivation to stay in rehab tonight. I was just informed tonight by my ex husband that my youngest baby’s first soccer game is tomorrow morning. Since I’m in a residential treatment home and it’s within my first 30 days, I can’t go to it!!! I’m so damned heartbroken right now!!! And my other kids aren’t w me either, one is w her grandmother and my oldest, who’s 19 already, is in a young adult home 40 mins from me. I’ve not seen my older 2 in a month now, and my youngest since mother’s day cuz his father is a lying twat waffle. I miss them all so freaking much as this is by far the longest I’ve ever gone w out seeing them. I’m struggling really really bad tonight.

I can sense how much u miss them but without sobriety in ur life, u may not end up having a good relationship with any of them in the future (as we all know that addiction literally takes everything from us). Rehab is such a great opportunity for u to change ur life! And by changing ur life, that also means a close relationship with those u love. So if ur struggling tonight, think of them and getting sober for not just urself but for them too.They deserve a sober mom :slight_smile:

I know it is very hard, but you are doing the right thing in getting sober and clean for yourself and your kids. It is truly the most loving and selfless thing gift you can give them, a sober healthy mom. Don’t give up. It takes time. :heart::butterfly:
