This is the story of how I almost ruined my life…
I have been debating talking openly about this, because I feel so much shame about everything. However, I’ve received overwhelming support from this community, and you have all touched my life in one way or another, giving me the extra push I needed to embrace this moment in my life as an opportunity for profound growth/change. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Drinking is not the problem, it is the symptom of serious emotional trauma. I’ve worked on this my whole adult life, and made great progress. I’ve come so far, but the most difficult thing I’ve held onto, needs to be healed. It’s this deep belief, that those who love me, will abandon me when I need them most. I’ve acted this false belief out over and over, for my entire adult life. It’s the source of all the major mistakes I’ve made in life. Now, this belief has begun to lose its hold inside of me, because I did something I feel incredible shame over, yet olivia and her family rallied around me, and all of you Instagram friends, praised and encouraged me for my honesty. I’m truly very lucky and so grateful for the overwhelming support. This is a chance for me to work on myself with greater awareness, and shed this old skin, once and for all so I can embrace all the wonderful things I’ve been building over the years: love/family, my business, my spiritual practices, and my long term well being/happiness.
Currently, I have some major hurdles to jump. I’m working on raising the rest of the money I need for a rehab and a lawyer. My business is on hold for now, so I’m finishing the last jobs I have in the works. I’ve been assured by the public defender that I won’t face another night in jail because I have no prior arrests, but the potential charges are very serious. The main priority, is to get the care I need, in rehab, and to salvage my freedom. I’m not sure at this point, how I can raise all the funds needed to make this a reality, but deep down I believe that God and the universe will provide everything I need to get through this most challenging time. Just wanted to share more completely where I’m at, thank you thank you thank you for all the love and support.
