From people who came through it

  • โ€œFor whoever is where I was: Not that long ago, about a year, that was me. The worst part was rehab twice already. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It changes. It really does. Sending love.โ€

  • โ€œIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are two years ago. Back then it was rehab twice already. I went on vacation in the summer and actually relaxed. It's slow, but it does come back. Be gentle with yourself.โ€

  • โ€œif you are starting with a loved one's addiction, i am sorry. it is a mess. you will not know what to do. i still don't. but you don't have to figure it out alone. find a group like al-anon, even if it feels strange. keep your own money safe if you can. i learned that the hard way. and it is not your fault. you can love them and still say no. i am still learning that.โ€

    Rusty Rowan ยท been through a loved one's addiction
  • โ€œI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason. It doesn't. But you can get through it. I did, and I'm not especially strong. Try not to make big decisions on the worst days and I learned that the hard way.โ€
