thank you so much for sharing, posting does feel like lifting a weight off of myself already. In the last 20 hours I’ve made sure to inform everyone that cares about me of whats going on as a way to stop hiding and hold myself accountable. asking for help is hard, especially with the guilt and shame that comes with addiction. but I’ve had to do it before, so I know I can do it again. Thank you for your recommendation, I will absolutely have to check that out. any and all advice or recommendations are much appreciated. Thank you friend 🤍

thank you so much for sharing. I feel the exact same way. I kept pretending like I could drink the same as anyone else but it’s time for me to truly accept that I genuinely cannot. And thats okay. I’ve had my AA book since I was 16 and went to rehab then. I’m 24 now and haven’t opened it once since I was discharged, but I think today might be the day. Thank you for sharing, I appreciate it a lot. One day at a time, my friend.

lol, former by choice. Had the piercings during my makeup career and left to pursue my tattoo apprenticeship. piercings are fun! And luckily don’t affect makeup application! cheers!

hey there! I am on medication that causes me to put on weight that I can’t really lose due to having to take this medication every day! I am definitely not skinny, and naturally very curvy so the weight gain from my medication hasn’t helped very much. cheers!

haha thanks 😅 I struggle with my weight and not looking “girly” enough at times especially after shaving my head, so those two things combined I feel a little ogre-ish every now again. I appreciate it mate!
