To the person reading this, sometimes we get caught in the crossfire of a storm inside someone that we didn’t start and become collateral damage. Sometimes we blame ourselves. There’s guilt, there’s shame. We lie to our families, we lie to ourselves. Until the storm is so great, that it just simply cannot be hidden any longer. I’m here to say I see you. I hear you. You’re not alone. And I promise, you will get through it. We can’t forget that even though we love an addict, we must also love ourselves. Follow along in my personal story of loving an addict told through poetry.
