She told me I deserved better from myself, she let me build relationships with her family and gave me a feeling of responsibility and being needed.”

“In the end when it came right down to it, I stopped asking for what I wanted because I can see now I didn’t know. By doing the next right thing and not doing things I have to hide from everyone a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I’m starting to see that I need to love myself better and not give up on myself and that has been huge in my recovery, that choice and all the constant reminders that I deserve love, happiness and to be treated with kindness and that I need to focus on loving myself.”

He continued, with a nod to the future. “I wanted to have a sense of pride in myself and my everyday outlook and I wanted to be excited for tomorrow again.
