Danaken… the night I wrote this intro, I was extremely sad. Now… I feel much better. Some days I am up and some I am down. I definitely can relate to all that you said. I, too, sometimes wish it would be all over. But today, I feel a strength inside that I can’t place or identify the source of. Some days, like today, I just know that no matter what, I’m going to be okay and that I should be easy on myself. The thing about reaching rock bottom physically and spiritually is that I have nowhere to go but up from here on out… and the awareness I have now won’t allow me to slip to far back into past behaviors. Maybe we can talk privately… I would love to converse. Maybe there is something to be shared. Stay strong. Our lives and stories are not in vain.
