You popped up in my threads feed today…maybe someone thought I needed a meeting because I feel like I just heard one of the best shares ever…different story from mine, same story as mine…and I’m grateful for the experience. 13 years, “should be” 15 but I had to test it to make sure, and this life is awesome. And thanks for the reminder that there are some things I that need working on, and time is short. Thank you.
I’m new to your Substack and loved this solo video for your honesty, humility and luminescent presence. Congratulations on escaping the Hell Loop! I myself walked away from that self-destructive way of being coming up on three years ago, so I recognise and share the sense of freedom that the 12 steps bring to those who are diligent in following the programme. Keep advocating for a sober and responsible way of living in your inimitable and charming way. You are bringing positive change to a lot of people Holly 🙏🏼
The way I see it, you were doomed: you never had a moderating or stabilizing influence or structure in your young life (your parents are to blame for that, even if you've reconciled with your dad). So, you're not really to blame for the bad things that happened to you and the bad decisions you made. I'm just glad you survived. You're talented and beautiful and intelligent and ambitious and you deserve the best. p.s. my oldest daughter is a psychotherapist with some EMDR background and experience so I know a little bit about it. Best wishes for success and happiness.
