Oh my god I’m so thankful I’m in sober living. Like even ignoring the fact that it’s helping me stay sober, this is so good for me. I’m out of my toxic house, and instead of being alone all day I’m surrounded by 9 other women who truly love and care about me and I love them too
Like this morning I was having a cig and coffee feeling dread to do my hw and getting a little depressed and anxious, and when I came inside, Brittany (squid) gave me a big hug and said “aww look at you! So cute! I love you!!” And I was like wow life ain’t so bad
Like it’s mind blowing how much more functional I’ve become now that I’m surrounded 24/7 by people who’re good for me. I went from living in a car only showering once every few weeks to now I got up this morning, brushed my teeth cleaned my room took my meds and did laundry
The simplest tasks don’t overwhelm me like they used to. And if I’m ever down or slip back into old habits all these amazing women are here to call me out and help me. Like my second week here I relapsed with self harm, and although i hid it, many of the girls knew
They confronted me in the most gentle way anyone has confronted me about that kinda thing, talked to me and listened to me, and made a safety plan with me, they told me they cared about me and I could tell they truly understood and there was no judgement
It’s just crazy. I feel like a different person being here. A person who is able to have control over her life. Idk without sober living I’m sure I would be dead. I know I talk about this fucking all the time but I’m just so thankful. And I want u all to meet my roommates
