But as long as I’m still here I’m going to fight it. Fight for my sobriety. Fight for my kids. Hell, it’s a fight for my life. Just know that if you’re like me and suffering in silence, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. If there’s one thing that is a blessing of addiction its the gift of unity that binds us all together. A family like no other that guides, mentors, gives, and supports one another so freely. Strangers all fighting the same fight. So keep fighting and I’ll be right here fighting too.

We get so used to living this way, we often don’t even realize our toxic state.
