Today, someone will lay down their addiction and go back to their family. They won’t look like a hero, but they are.
We still think about you. 💔
Your memory is still a blessing. ♾️

I don't know what you went through 💔 but thank you for recognizing us. I still think of myself as a loser from time to time and this helps. Much love to you.
🫂 it was a lot, and I’ve been sober a long time, lost quite a few people in the worst ways. We gotta just keep on keeping on 🫡
You are not a loser. You’re just healing. Give yourself the grace they never gave you.
I have a sweetie in my corner 🙂 that helps a lot! Ironically, looking back, I had to get a divorce, meet my sweetie, fight the system to the death, then get full custody of my kids to really begin healing. What a scrap that was!!
Thanks again for sharing!
Appreciate the message too. Disagree with the hero part, but have lost too many to not be touched by it. Thanks ✌️
Think of it this way, it never looks like a hero, but it is compared to the alternative. Yeah, they still hate you. But you’re not dead. So you still get another chance.
I fortunately didn’t have to overcome addiction. Brother, friends, etc different story. I just don’t think putting your addiction to the side makes you a hero. Drug addiction has a lot of selfless/and self ish acts involved. I don’t hate anyone, too much energy to harbor that type of feelings. But I don’t feel sorry, nor feel like giving any kudos for being sober when it all boils down to choice in some way/shape or form. Still love the message/intentions of your post, regardless of my own view obvi ✌️🤷♂️🫶
