It is my past(my ex), my recent(I will call them A,B,D,E, and M), and current friend who are the addicts that have affected my life and brought me to Nar-anon and then back again. All new experiences that left me with not only wounds and emotional scares, but new lessons learned.
It is my current friend who was the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back and has brought me back to where I began. Back to the help that I so desperately want. To the tools and mindset to free myself from the chaos of enabling. I am grateful for this today. For the chance to come back to myself. To the self care and self love that I had lost to this affliction and had given all away to others. Baby steps. One day at a time I shall regain my footing and move forward towards the serenity I seek and a trusting relationship with my HP. I am grateful for the opportunity today.
I am glad you are here! Often times people who have one addict tend to find others that have the same personality. This cycle is repetitive until we, as the loved one/friend, decide to work on ourselves and our own program. It is a slow process of growth in order to "regain my footing and move forward towards the serenity," but it is a process that is worth every step 🙂
