Good afternoon, my name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering, alcoholic and addict. Sorry it's been so long since I posted. I have a lot going on in my life and at work. I guess I'm just loving the sober life! :) But anyway. Personally I have a lot going on because someone close to me is struggling with addiction. It hurts to see them do this...not only to themselves, but their family. It's hard to be on the other side of the situation now, when I was on the flip side where people were trying to help ME, now I'm doing the saving. But it is not me, only God can do that. I am only an instrument. There are days I want to give up... let them give up...but I cannot. I am a fighter and I will not let them lose this battle. I know only they have control of this choice to quit, or stay in this hell of addiction, but I will fight with them and help them if they want to change. But one thing I will NOT do is enable. I will not help them if them are continue to go down this road of insanity. That is all I have for today. So please pray for me and this person and the families involved. Thank you!
