Breaking Up Is Hard To Do

Posted April 16, 2008

I went into long term, addiction treatment, six years ago for a cocaine problem. While in the program my wife delivered me divorce papers. Looking back, it was the best place I could have been to receive such horrible and lonely news. All these years later, the woman I was currently engaged to, and in love with, delivered me “break-up news” in a very messy and abrupt way. While I am very depressed and broken hearted and devastated, I have not and will not use alcohol or drugs to deal with this pain. I have to go through the pain sober and clean this time around. What I learned in a long term inpatient treatment center are the life skills and knowledge to face pain and life on it’s own terms – to confront.
