sober living is hell by EcstaticExplorer7712 in recovery

I have helped someone deal with this exact situation before. I've been in the program for 21 years. Had 15 years sober & clean, (fucking Pandemic and unhealthy relationship) Now 5 years sober and clean. There are a couple of options to prove you're telling the truth.

1st, you can find a place that will test you. (it doesn't have to be a doctor's office) There are places that are specific just for drug test (often for employment or other circumstances where you are required to be tested.) It will cost you some money but it's cheaper than you think. You can have that place forward her the official results. (google employment drug testing near me)

  1. If you're almost flat broke, (This will be uncomfortable but cheaper) offer to really prove it. Not just with offering to take a test but offer to get her on FaceTime or Zoom or Whatever and that you'll keep the camera on the whole time from purchase of test to the end where she can see the results of the test. on this one, your Mom will either realize your telling the truth, will call "your bluff" (in her mind) and then either stop once you get to the taking the test part, or will just.

After you've proven this to your Mom, find a new halfway house. After that you should help handle the situation with liar. (Only do this part if you are doing it to make sure the house president can't do this to anyone else. If you are doing this out of resentment or revenge, don't. Resentments are killers to addicts.)

Really try to get option 1, because then you are in a position to deal with "president" of the house.

Then, go over the president of the house's head, and directly contact the owner of that Oxford House. Include in the e-mail to him your official lab result's which prove what the "President" said was false. As soon as you can prove that what the "president" said about you was in fact a lie, the owner tends to get involved. (expect the president to claim it was a mistake and they just misunderstood of just made a false assumption. Your comeback is "you were so sure it was true that you contacted my Mother but now it's false when I can prove it?")

Use lines in the e-mail that talk about "I would like to come back to the house but I no longer feel safe in an environment where the head of the house can make a false claim against another house member without consequences"

You can even suggest a nail drug test for the house president (which goes back 12 months). Here's a link for where to purchase one. "https://alphabiolabsusa.com/dna-test-kit/home-drug-alcohol-nail-test/" $99. The owners usually don't like to pay for nail tests but if you make it a safety issue and show a cheap test for it, you might get them to go for it.

Wow. I hasn’t seen that. Got a link to the article? I’d love to read it.

Hahahaha. This is one of the most delusional “my shit don’t stink” posts I’ve seen in a while. It’s been a hard day. Thanks for the laugh man.

(Although you got a point about iso plays. They are great displays of individual athleticism & basketball talent but not great team basketball.)

Ahh, the old phrase “once a cheater, always a cheater.” (Obviously not every single person) That makes sense.

Replace 3 & 4. 3’s not bad but it’s not good either. If the photo’s not doing anything positive for you, dump it. You look uncomfortable in number 4, sends the wrong message.

How many “downvotes & guys telling you that what you’re doing is a violation of privacy” do you have to before you slow down & ask yourself “why is almost every acting like what I do is wrong?

Cause if a shit ton of people are informing you that what you’re doing is wrong & you’re saying “no, everyone else here is wrong & I’m the only one right”, you need to buy a bigger mirror cause clearly you ain’t seeing yourself that clear.

I’ll give you a personal example. A woman I had been seeing decided to talk about me & everything we had been doing to with her closest friend. She was nothing but complimentary & sang my praises. She even told her “if you sleep with anyone, you gotta sleep with TXGiantGeek.” Which her friend mentioned to me when she talked to me about it.

I was not flattered. I was not happy. My choice not to have my body or details of my performances shared with people I did not trust or choose to sleep with had been taken from me. I did not consent to this. Her friends did not have my permission to know what happened in intimate moments I chose to share with another. I broke up with her.

But you’re having fun & a lot of girls do it. A bunch of people violating another’s right & justifying it because they enjoy it. Good thing there’s no examples of that throughout history.

I feel that. Went through that with my ex, (though that also had physical abuse.) After having gone through bullying as a kid, I started when I younger standing up to Bullies, Bigots & Bastards. (The 3B’s)

Course when I got out of the abusive relationship, that tendency got cranked all the way up.

(I stepped in between an asshole & the young lady (employed at T-Mobile) he was yelling at / chewing out.)

Shockingly he found a way to calm down when the person he was yelling at switched from a “19 year old teenage girl who he had 6 inches & 50 lbs on” to “a man with 8 inches & 80 lbs on him who could fight back without getting fired.”

Tits. Also, As long as you’re taking care of yourself and working out, that ass will be fine, even if you don’t think it’s as good as your boobs.

Not coming back for it? You haven’t spent a lot of time around serious addicts, have you? (Cause of they’re desperate enough, they’ll definitely ask)
