Hi everybody...I need some advice from you? |
Issue About 2 months ago I just got out of Treatment. I was addicted to Meth, and Marijuana. I know meth is really bad, I've heard all the what if's from my friends and family. But my problem is this; My Uncle lives next door and he has 2 little boys. Whenever one of them is around me their mother (my Aunt) calls him inside for some reason. So then I take the hint and go home. Please help me I love my family so much. I don't know what else to do. Best Tip You have to earn thier trust back. Having that happen in your family could be considered dangerous. They dont want you to be a bad influence on him. It will just take time. Prove that you are on the short and narrow. Make sure that you apologize to them face to face and prove to them that you are going to change. Others you need to talk to her and tell her how you feel. dont beat around the bush, be upfront and honest! thats the best thing to do! LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU WENT TO TREATMENT FOR A REASON, TO GET CLEAN, SO THATS UR FIRST STEP, YOUR SECOND IS TO EARN THEIR TRUST BACK, START BY WRITTING AN APOLOGY LETTER, MAYBE A POEM ON HOW YOU MESSED UP AND WANT TO MAKE IT UP TO THEM, LET THEM KNOW HOW MUCH YOU LOVE THEM. TELL THEM THIS IS THE TIME YOU NEED THEIR SUPPORT TO HELP YOU STAY CLEAN AND STRONG. GOOD LUCK AND CONGRATULATIONS! you have to earn their trust back and they might take a while talk to her and be open keep up the great work of being clean You have lost their trust and respect. Earn it back. Show them you are clean and will be now on. Show them what a great person you are when you're not on drugs. Good luck! Firstly well done for getting treatment for your addiction, if you can deal with that you must have the strength to deal with most things. If you want to improve your situation you have to talk to your aunt. Ask her what her problem is and re-assure her that you have been treated for you addiction and are ok now. Ask her for her help and support in what must be a difficult time for you and tell her how her actions are not helping you and how it is making you feel. Please realize that some people, in fact, most people, who are not addicted to drugs or alcohol, do not understand that it is a devastating disease. You have been in treatment and I am sure that they gave you an understanding of the disease concept of addiction as recognized by the American Medical Assoc. When we have been addicts, our behavior is very confusing and scary to others. They need to see you walk the path of recovery for a period of time before they can relax their guard and before they can trust you not to revert to old behavior. Try to surround yourself with others in recovery. It is really crucial to do so. Feeling misunderstood only increases the feelings of loneliness and being "less than" which you already feel. Others in recovery will understand your pain and sadness and will help to give you a new perspective. If you continue to grow in recovery, you will become someone who everyone actually looks up to. What a concept isn't it? Please take good care of your recovery. It is very precious and so are you. Take it easy and stay close to your program. |
