Addiction

I am a very educated person, I have many interests, I read a lot and am always trying to learn more. I love to write, and someday would like to get something published. I have 6 years sobriety and am very proud of that. I take my program very serious, and would be nothing to jepordize my sobriety or anyone else's. I am looking to meet serious people in recovery on this site.I started drinking when I was 12 years old I also left home at this time Every kind of abuse you can think of happened I took my father grandfather and brother to court for sexual abuse. After the trial I was taken out of my home.I have been in a number of foster homes. My drinking and drug use progressed along with my place ments first it was foster homes then a few group homes then the streets sleeping in dumpsters detention homes institutions,jails I have been in every state mental hospital in northeastern ohio. Then prison but I still did not stop. I dranked and druged in most of these places if I could.I have been in tratment. What finally made me stop is I had lost my soul myself.I could not take the hospitals and other places anymore I could not take the memories of what I had done and the thought of what I had become. I could not even kill myselfI wanted 2 things when I came to a.a. I wanted the pain to stop and I wanted to be a lady I did not know how to accomplish either one but today I do god and a.a.
