Quiero desahogarme …
want to share a bit of my story with addiction anonymously.
It started when I was very young, and over time it stopped being something occasional and became a serious problem that affected my health and my family life. There were difficult moments when I needed medical attention, and it had a big impact on the people close to me.
Recently, I went through a rehabilitation process. Even though it wasn’t completely voluntary, I still tried to take it seriously and work on myself. It has been a difficult process with a lot of ups and downs, and I’m learning that recovery is not something linear or immediate.
Sometimes it’s hard to talk about it with other people because from the outside it can look like everything is “fine” if you’re functioning in everyday life. But internally, it still feels like a constant struggle.
I’m not writing this for pity or to justify anything. I just needed to get it off my chest, and maybe connect with people who have gone through something similar.
