I've been sad and cried. I've been angry and I've get happy thinking about memories.

I am feeling so numb and disgusting right now. I'm angry and upset and I feel like I drowning and overwhelmed. I keep relapsing on stupid addictions and I feel so overwhelmed with guilt. I am completely disgusted with myself and I just don't understand why I had to be born. I just don't know what to do anymore. I am completely and utterly broken in every way possible and my one way of being fixed has been ruined by me because I just cant help but isolate myself from everything and anything good. im so alone. im so tired. sorry for this rant, i just needed to get this out. i just dont want to feel alone.
@shymelody dont ever feel like youre alone. Theres enough people in this world that therell always be someone out there who cares about you. Its difficult to open up to people at times, especially when you know youre struggling with something that youre not particularly proud of. Just know that you have the power within you to start the process of making changes. And change is not about being perfect, but about continuing to make progress. Sure, anyone can have a bad day. Im having a rough day today myself. But Im learning. Im learning that one bad day doesnt define me. Im learning that the people who are able to make change are those who find their inner fuel, that spark that makes you unique and defines who you are. It took me a while to find something good about myself, but Ive learned that I like helping others. Thats what fuels me and thats what gets me through the rough patches (or mountains, really). Take a deep breath and know that this too shall pass. You have a friend in me. :)

You sound like me, I have the same dilemmas keeping me from growing and thriving at the pace I want. Relapse sucks, and we never mean to feel lonely, it's just a challenge to reach out when you just wanna hide. The negative thoughts make us feel like we should seclude ourselves. You're not nothing, and you're here for a reason. We made it this far, and it certainly wasn't by chance. We have the opportunity to change the lives of others whether we notice it or not. Giving a smile, helping someone in any small way, allows ourselves to travel outside our own minds. Then we don't feel so trapped or influenced by the negativity of our lives. There's more to us than us. We are all here for each other, and I couldn't empathize with you more. If you can and want to, take recovery slowly, day by day. Don't count the sober days just take victory in every day you say "Not for me, not today". You're only human, we make mistakes. We just have to take more pride in our daily successes and avoid the self-chastising during our pitfalls. Keep your chin up, and keep the strength, hope and love going. Thanks for posting, know you're not alone in this! We're gonna make it!
