Hi Pambler
Please leave the guilt and embarrassment behind
Be kind to yourself drugs and alcohol are not your friends
Whatever got to where you have been
Is the past
I have had years of my son being an absolute nightmare
Last November he was at his worst
But he’s managed to work through his baggage and guilt it’s hard work
I really thought he might die he was skin and bone couldn’t even hold a cup without shaking couldnt keep food down
He was covered in bruises
Chain smoking
He look like he was homeless
It’s not been easy his gp gave him anti sickness pills anti depressants and diasapan to take the edge of the shaking
He managed to get back to some sort of stability
He has been in counselling since February
He’s found groups to join
He fell of the wagon and ended up back in hospital in April
But he was back sober within a couple of weeks
This is a hard road
He with me for a few days break and is
So much better
Keep trying keep talking to us on this forum we don’t judge
And we don’t sleep much lol
Take care of yourself
