I can't believe delivery...to sum it up...we bear the sh t....out of each other. Next day we had 2 appointments. My shrink. Then a rapid hiv test. He had big red and purple lips...I hated it...the right side of my face, ear and head was so bruised it was black...I put on his sisters rouge but it just made my face another obnoxious color.
I went from posh rehab to a psych ward...then to the #1 place for almost 6 months...I learned a lot about people, empathy...and I also learned I have no patience for a big mouthed blow hard begging for methadone. I was in a place for a spin dry 9 years ago. Tom and I did the impossible...we got sober together and stayed sober together...and if I am not on. A set or location for my Peas...I freelance...and Tom is a computer baby....mostly working at home.
Scary story, but very inspiring!
