I hope this story reaches someone in despair and thinks there is no hope.

After the many, many years of having my soul annihilated by my angry mother. I had many suicide attempts. Eventually, I found my cure to numb the hate I felt towards myself. Like I said, I would spit in the mirror at the image I saw. I hatched a plan, to drink myself to death. I feel in love with alcohol, since it soothed my feelings of despair and anger. I guess I was lucky, because I have heard that some people are angry drunks. I was a happy drunk. A couple of years into the drinking, I tried many different drugs. Probably the only drug I never did was heroin. This was all to numb the pain and cause my eventual death.

Then, one night after drinking one bottle of whisky and having some meth. I looked at a full bottle of Tylenol. I looked at the ceiling and something appeared, perhaps an angel, I don't know. Perhaps some euphoria from all the drugs I took, but it gave me warmth. I didn't take the bottle of Tylenol and eventually, gave up alcohol and the drugs. This was 20 years ago and I am sober.

Never give up hope and one day you will be rewarded. I was rewarded by watching the birth of my daughter and this wouldn't have happened if my plan succeeded. There is hope, trust me I was there in that bottomless pit.

I'm glad you were able to find your way through the sad legacy of your youth. Thanks for sharing the story.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
