I use to be addicted….?

Published May 17, 2010

Im 26 and im an inactive drug user for almost 2 years. When I was 16 i went to prestigious Catholic High school in my town. That was the year I first tried heroin. Before that I use to make fun of junkies,calling them fienes or crackheads.But before I knew it I was “one of those people.
When my parents finally found out the severity of my addiction and what kind of drugs I was dealing with They sent me to rehab. Over the next few years I would stay clean for awhile but then always ended up back in some rehab or detox center. I got clean long enough to enroll at Bradly University 3 and half years. Then I got pregnant. My mom convinced me I was to irresponsible to raise the baby.So when my son was born my mother took him and raised as my brother and sent me back to school! I was so devastate over giving my child to my mother so I could finish school.For God sakes I was still lactating when I returned to school.i was 21.
Needless to say that monster crept up at my weakest hour and I started using again!
Im clean now and have been for some time now. Im engaged and have a beautiful daughter.
I just cant forgive my mother for convinceing me I couldn’t raise a child,and convinced me to give up my son to her. Would I have never started using again? Would I have finished my degree? Did she make the right choice for me without giving me a chance?
