โI've been there. For me it was a few years back. Al-Anon on Wednesdays, every single day. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It changes. It really does. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โIf 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
โI don't have answers, but I can tell you that you're not crazy for feeling everything at once. The line between helping and enabling is blurry, and you'll cross it sometimes. That doesn't make you a bad person. Find one person who gets it. For me, it was a mate from work who'd been through something similar. And keep something for yourself, even if it's just a run. You'll get through, but not in a straight line.โ
โif 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
