01 What it was like

My life was a total mess. I had abandoned two of my kids to their father, I weighed 84 lbs at my smallest, I was in an extremely violent relationship the went both ways. I was an IV user of meth and spent weeks on end awake and doing stupid crap like painting my porch at 2 am in the winter in Oklahoma.

02 What happened

I finally got tired of everything going wrong in my life. I knew I had to something and quitting was the first step. I had no idea that two months after quitting my ultimate reason to stay quit would occur and that was losing my husband to an overdose.

03 What it is like now

I am proud to say all my kids are back in my life and thriving. I have now been sober for over 14 years and just completed my bachelor's degree in justice. I walk the stage in 3 weeks. I'm happily remarried and work for a large mortgage company in charge of auditing their claims.
