I've been struggling with addiction, on and off, for about four years now. I'm on MMT right now, have a job, etc. I also feel like a fraud, like I am always standing on the edge of oblivion, and I'm not even really clean because of the methadone...<br /><br />I just wanted to say that I really admire you. I hope you know how much your words do for people like me. You have a gift - your writing is real and powerful, and it helps me just to hear from someone further along in recovery than I am. It helps me be hopeful for my own sobriety.<br /><br />It is somehow reassuring to hear from a recovering addict who is a bit cynical. During my periods of total sobriety, I would get this hopeless feeling (at times), that life was never going to be enjoyable again, even if I could escape the addiction demons. Of course, there are good times and bad times, but still.. it helps to hear from a recovering addict who acknowledges that struggle.<br /><br />I really appreciate what you do.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11009161585271498841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971965211310107060.post-90356507850446967542016-08-24T13:25:25.019-07:002016-08-24T13:25:25.019-07:00Thank you 😀Thank you 😀traceyh415https://www.blogger.com/profile/16828593445682777623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6971965211310107060.post-44006397330623070532016-08-24T12:25:39.430-07:002016-08-24T12:25:39.430-07:00Much love, Tracey <3

I dealt with that feeling a lot throughout my education, medical school, etc. Its such a bizarre yet incredibly real feeling, and in recent years I've spoken to so many of my peers who felt the same way, secretly, inside. <br /><br />I just want to say, you are NOT an imposter. You're an incredible woman, and the work you are doing is phenomenal.

Just like you've told many others when they felt hopeless and helpless, "even if you don't think anyone loves you I LOVE YOU!" <br /><br />If you need to take time and work on yourself for a bit, DO IT! You've more than earned it!<br /><br />(p.s I really hope this didn't come off as inappropriate. I really have no clue what you're struggling with so if my saccharine positivity was offensive I sincerely apologize. I really wish you the absolute best. Thank you for being yourself and putting yourself out there and honestly telling your story.
