Hello to all! I am new here to Psych Central and to this forum. I am a recovering addict, but, I am still an addict! It's very hard to get through the days sometimes when I still am grieving for the loss of my beautiful mother!! I still can't let go of the guilt i feel for the things I did and didn't do when I had her here with me! I have relapsed here and there and I always feel more guilt. But, I do ask for forgiveness and I pray about it! Makes me feel better to know that God will forgive me if I ask for forgiveness! It also makes me feel better knowing that He still loves me and my Angels love me and will never leave my side! I've gotten very spiritual since I went to rehab last year. My Higher Power...God is the one who can help me with this!! I have trust in Him! Just, some days are too hard to get through!! But, I am really trying to get through this and beat this! I've accomplished a lot since rehab! I won't get into everything, but, I will say that I am starting school in August and I am proud of that!! I'm turning my life around little by little, one day at a time. Thanks for letting me share! Love and Light!

First let me say WELCOME to Psych Central, and also let me say I'm so very sorry for the loss of your beloved Mother.
 It is so very hard to lose a parent! I've lost both mine now, and I feel like an orphan, even at my age. (63). There is always something you want to tell or share with your parents, and now you can't.I'm glad you went to Rehab -- and I know how hard it is to get/stay clean. I'm a recovering alcoholic/addict, and the early days were very difficult for me. I kept as busy as I could so that I didn't think as much about using, and it really helped. Plus my group kept me busy too, thank God -- they were life savers! I hope you're still going to meetings and they are very important! Not only do they help keep you sober, but they keep you humble too. Best of luck, and remember to take baby steps -- one day at a time. God bless and take care. Hugs, Lee
