I’m addicted to meth and I like drinking?

by Saundra

Hi, I am Saundra and I am addicted to mainly meth but I do all drugs and I like drinking and I am always on something.

I am tired of living like this. My mom has lots of health problems and she is not going to live forever and she needs to be worried about her health instead of raising my kids. I can sober up but for some reason I use again.

It’s been like this since I was 12 and I’m scared to go to rehab. I just want someone to come hold my hand and just to go to the rehab with me. I am scared to tell my family because they are always disappointed in my decisions and it’s not that I want to live my life as a drug addict, it’s that I need help to stop.

I’m on probation and I don’t want to lose my kids. I go to NA meetings but I am afraid it is not enough. My husband is getting out of prison this month and he is going to be sober and i don’t want to be a bad influence on him.

I need someone to help me tell my family that I am willing to go, I just need someone that loves me in my corner to give me the boost and I need to get away from my ex boyfriend. He is a very big downfall and trigger but I care about him.

Please, who can I get to come to me tell my family and take me directly to treatment?

and Finally Remember:

“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”
– Matthew 7:7-8
