Seeking forgiveness - Wow I was looking for a certain document that I need on my laptop and instead of finding the document, I found a bunch of screenshot of messages between people and me. When I read it I was just shocked.. I have been horrible to these people who just wanted to help me. There are people literally saying to me: STOP USING! And reading my answer to this, seeing my denial was so deep. It shows me again that addiction is a disease. And how much you want to help someone who is struggling with addiction, they have to realise it for themselves. I am grateful for the people who tried to help me and had to turn their back on me. I am grateful for the people who stuck by my side, I don't take anyone for granted. I forgive everyone and mostly I apologise for all the mess I made, for being so selfish, for ruining friendship, for sleepless nights, for being a bitch, for making people scared of me, for my inappropriate reactions/situations, stealing, And so much more! I can't change the past and I accept my past because if I didn't have my past, I would not be who I am today.
So thank you to everyone! I hope one day you will be able to forgive me.

Will Smith
One last quote that I learned in treatment:
Don't judge me on my past, I don't live there anymore.
Lots of love
