There was something unnerving about the way I reveled in my pain.
Alcohol allowed me to reside there permanently.
There was something unnerving about the way I reveled in my pain.
Alcohol allowed me to reside there permanently.
I will no longer hold precious space in my heart for anyone who doesn’t also hold the same place in theirs for me.
Playing the victim is leading me nowhere except an early grave from substance abuse.
I was a victim but I don’t have to continue to stay in that position. From here on out, I will try my best to address my traumas in only healthy ways to give myself the chance at life that I deserve, instead of engaging in dangerous coping mechanisms that are only fleetingly self-serving, but will happily see me lowered into the ground before I hit 35.
