I Feel My Life Is a Mess

Another probation violation, off to jail for a long time this time. My second offense in less than 6 months. I was only released a month and 4 days ago. I’m not looking for sympathy I know I’m an idiot. I’m about to turn myself in to serve the reminder of my probation behind bars. I’m making a promise to myself to turn my life around at this point I’m going to take a rehabilitation course while in there and stay out of trouble. I wish I could go back to my childhood and start over. By this point in my life I wanted a family all I’ve ever had was alcohol, drugs and fake friends.

You are NOT an idiot. Your brilliance led you to protect yourself the best and only way you knew how with the resources you had at hand. It worked. You survived.

You can't return to your childhood. But would you really want to? You CAN, however, parent yourself in a healthy way - in a way you never found when you were a kid.

I'm sorry you grew up in the circumstances you did. But there ARE things you can do to change your life in the present.

I hope things are going well for you.

You Are Loved. 💗

Hopefully you’re okay and at peace with it. 18 months might seem like a long time without freedom, but you’ll be okay come out stronger, sober and a better person. Your life can turn around. You’re probably already in jail so you probably won’t see this for a while. Anyway hope to hear some updates next year.
