If you prefer to watch me during this episode instead of just listening, you can find the full episode uploaded on YouTube. This is the part two episode of the Opioid Addict episode. I finish reading a few more juicy journal entries and ugly cry some more. Then I give my advice and suggestions on how to cope and heal with being an addict or being affected by an addict. Setting boundaries and sticking to them is hard. Being on the receiving end of the boundary line is also hard. Ultimately my message is that we all have the ability to make others' lives easier or harder. It's really that simple. You are only responsible for your own actions and happiness, remember that. If you are struggling with addiction, remember these words straight from my journal written on Wednesday July 17, 2019. Read this to yourself out loud or silently, write it down, let it resonate with you, let it soak into your soul. THIS IS MY RECOVERY SO I WILL DO WHAT I NEED, WHEN I NEED, HOWEVER I NEED, PERIOD. END OF STORY I WILL OPENLY AND WILLINGLY LISTEN TO ANY OPINIONS OR OBSERVATIONS THAT ARE VOICED TO ME, BUT I WILL NOT LET IT BRING ME DOWN. NO ONE CAN EVER DULL MY SUNSHINE. NO ONE IS IN CHARGE OF MY HAPPINESS. BUT ME. NO ONE CAN MAKE ME FEEL LESS OF MYSELF. NO ONE CAN DICTATE OR INFLUENCE MY SOBRIETY. I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR MY OWN HAPPINIESS, SOBRIETY, RECOVERY. I WILL NEVER FORGET OR IGNORE THIS. SO MOTE IT BE SO MOTE IT BE SO MOTE IT BE! AND SO IT IS!
