I feel like my thoughts are out of control they are around SH, am safe but am struggling with the thoughts I have been so stressed the thoughts are just coming back. I don't want to have my addiction to SH again. I want to stay clean.
@Former-Member - am safe

It's just draining @Snowie, having to act like your okay when your not

Oh I know how that feels @Fluttershy1
It is hard bottling it up inside, trying to act like everything is ok on the outside. Plastering on that fake smile and pretending. It is super hard hon.

Hugs @Fluttershy1 I'm hearing you. That is so invalidating and really hard to have to endure this from your family.
I hope it has helped to write it all out. To me it sounds more like there are many people who are failing you, not the other way around.
Also I know it's not gonna fix much, and maybe it wouldn't work but... could you find a little spot to have your very own secret stash of your favourtie snacks? It's not nice to go buy yourself something yummy then it's gone when you want it. IDK just a thought, it can be nice to have something that's just... yours.
