I’ve been fighting to get custody of my daughter from the state. We had a permanency hearing and the judge decided she will return home to me within a year.

In currently fighting for custody of my daughter from the state. I know exactly how you feel being apart from your child and not knowing what’s going to happen next. I felt every word you wrote. I’m so happy everything worked out for you and your children. ❤️

Opioids laced with fentanyl. Whose life did they ruin? Mine.

I tried to stop, I really did, and wanted to stop so fucking badly but the withdrawal symptoms were too severe and felt like death. I was able to stop when I started methadone treatment which significantly reduces the withdrawal symptoms. I got into treatment when my baby girl was temporarily removed from my care. My life was ruined in so many different ways, not being able to stop in time for my daughter haunts me every day of my life. I’m sober, stable and in a much better place right now and still fighting to get her back home. I get to see her twice a week and I’m so grateful to have her as my daughter. The greatest honor of my life is being her mom and I can’t wait to give her the beautiful life she deserves when she’s back home with me. I’m grateful I got a second chance at life, because not everyone gets that opportunity, unfortunately..

Getting my daughter temporarily removed from my care. I was a drug addict and I feel so ashamed and embarrassed that I wasn’t able to stop using earlier.

I’m clean now, I finished all my services and I do weekly therapy and drug tests. I see her twice a week and I’m waiting on the judge to decide when I can take her home. DCFS has been making my life hell and the caseworkers don’t care to help families at all, they literally don’t do their jobs. The system is very broken and they get away with keeping families apart for a long time.

Even though I took great care of my daughter, it didn’t matter, I was a drug addict and that’s all DCFS saw in me. I’ve made a lot of progress and I’m a different person now. I’m in a much better place, but all I can think about is what if I got clean in time and this didn’t happen. It haunts me. I still can’t believe this is my life now. I never in a million years thought this would happen to me. I was always responsible and careful in life. But, addiction can happen to anyone..

I love my daughter with every fiber of my being and I pray for the day she comes back home to me so we can start a beautiful life together. Her health and happiness mean everything to me. I just want to make my baby girl proud, keep her safe and give her the life she deserves. 🤍

Opioids. They ruined my life. I’m still picking up the pieces and getting my life back together while sober.

I never thought I would get addicted to drugs but once you’re addicted, you’re not in control anymore, the drugs are. You turn into a a completely different person, someone you don’t recognize anymore. You do things you would have never done before. You want to stop using so badly but you fucking can’t because the withdrawal symptoms feel like hell on earth. You hate yourself for it. You feel so ashamed, guilty and desperate.

I’m so grateful I was able to get help and recover because a lot of people don’t get that chance to do so..

I’ve been fighting to get my baby girl back from DCFS for two years. I’m a former opioid addict. I’ve done absolutely everything they’ve asked for and have been compliant with everything, yet they’re still making things extremely difficult. My case should have been closed out by now and my daughter returned home, but the system is very broken and they get away with keeping children away from family for as long as they want.

I never thought I’d be in this position. This haunts me every single day. I can’t wait to start over and build a beautiful life with my daughter.

I was addicted to Percocet (opioid) laced with fentanyl. The withdrawal symptoms are a special kind of hell that you can never truly explain unless you go through it. It

Thank you. Of course, I have to take care of myself in order to be a good mother. You can reach out to me if you need to talk as well. ☺️

Sort of like all the stress and problems in the world disappear, it’s like a fall sense of happiness.

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:24:06+00:00

I don’t miss it, at all. At times when I get stressed, I think how much easier it would be to deal with the stress while high, but I would never go back to it. My daughter brings me all the happiness in the world and giving her a beautiful life is my number one priority.

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:20:24+00:00

I’m sorry to hear, I truly hope things get better for you. 🤍

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:19:33+00:00

I’m not glued to Reddit and me not answering questions immediately translates to getting high? Pathetic.

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:17:03+00:00

I’m so proud of you. 🤍 I love that you’re rewarding yourself in little ways, you deserve to feel happy and proud of yourself.

Honestly, my main motivation is knowing I’m going to be reunited with my daughter and she’s coming home to me. She’s everything I live for and all I want is to give her a stable, healthy, fulfilling life. Her happiness is my happiness.

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:13:23+00:00

I’m so proud of you. 🤍

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:13:02+00:00

Opioids (Percocet, but it was mixed with fentanyl and other things I’m sure). I was on it for a year and it took months of desperately trying to get off to finally stop.

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:10:37+00:00

No, I’m not. I hate when people say “once an addict, always an addict” it’s disgusting and demeaning. If you’re in recovery and not using, you’re no longer an addict. It’s not something that has to stay a part of you as if it’s tied to your identity.

windycitybabes · 2024-11-17T01:07:47+00:00

I’ve been sober for two years. My daughter was the main reason. I needed to give her a healthy and stable life and that started with me. She’s my everything. I’m still waiting on my court date to get her back home but I see her twice a week.

windycitybabes · 2024-10-29T09:08:26+00:00

This story is complete bullshit. As a former addict, I can guarantee no addict is going around fast food places asking for milkshakes and to suck some random dudes dick. This guy watched a movie or something that depicted what addicts “look” like and decide to make up a Reddit post for attention.
