Pregnant, Sober, and Struggling: Seeking Support

I am currently 6 months pregnant, recently sober, and suffer from multiple mental disorders and aggressive behavior. I'm just trying to find people who are going through or have gone through some of the same situations I have in order to better myself and to be a better mother for my son.

Stick with your recovery and your child will never know you as that person. Hit meetings, get a sponsor, hang out with like minded people to your personal goals. #recoverysister

Yes yes yes ❤️ I can't stress enough how crazily different my life is right now from 18 months ago, and how grateful I am. After 10+ years of substance and alcohol abuse I went to a rehab in a different city, initially for 3 months. 5 weeks before I went I was supposed to go to a different place, but tried to end my life and so was in hospital so I couldn't go. Self sabotage loud and clear, I genuinely believed I'd be better off dead than try and fail at another rehab. But I got to rehab, eventually. When I was there, I slept with another resident and only went and got pregnant 😂 jokes aside, I have a history of unstable, codependent and usually toxic relationships, so the staff at the rehab were worried to say the least. But I took it as a sign, to live and try to be the best person I could be for my son. I ended up staying in rehab for 6 months, rebuilt my relationship with my family, and now I love with my 8 month old boy and his dad, who is also in recovery. It hasn't been easy, at all. But my god it's worth it! Good luck!
