I see no reason why you shouldn't be given a second chance. Honesty is always the answer.

You sound like a very strong person -- I applaud you for getting clean/sober on your own. That's hard to do. I had to have help -- I went to AA cause I could NOT do it on my own.

You're still young and have a good life ahead of you. Forgive yourself!! You made some mistakes and God has forgiven you! Why can't YOU forgive yourself??? It's done and over and you're trying to repair things. Keep trying. You'll make it. God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee
