@chaotically_christine: In my active addiction, I felt like I was living in a constant cycle of chasing relief but never finding peace. Every time I used, I thought it would fill the hole inside me, but instead it only dug it deeper. The more I tried to escape my pain, the more I became trapped in it. Shame clung to me like a second skin. I couldn’t look in the mirror without feeling disgusted at who I had become. I carried the weight of disappointment, both in myself and in the eyes of the people who loved me. No matter how much I wanted to stop, I couldn’t, and that powerlessness made me feel worthless. I lost myself in the haze, and with every broken promise, every failed attempt to get clean, my hope slipped further away. What was left was emptiness, like a hollow shell walking through life, disconnected from who I once was and who I wanted to be. Addiction stole my self-worth, convincing me that I didn’t matter, that I wasn’t enough, and that maybe I never would be. #momsinrecovery #WeDoRecover #thereishope
