It is officially summer. Officially the most triggering time of year since my life with Roi. I had somehow convinced myself that it's been forever since any indiscretions but then I just went back through this blog and realized that it's been about a year since any acting out with sex addiction and a mere 4 months since another breach of trust with prescription drugs.
This is what happens when I spend too much time with Roi and not enough time in my own reality. All the crazy gets normalized and I end up feeling like I'm the problem. I'm the crazy. Like, what is my problem already, everything is fine. I forget that 5 years of nearly continuous addiction leaves its mark and there must be proper time to heal.
What I don't forget is that despite sobriety, there's still a lot of crazy and the events of the last several months seem impossible, insurmountable to write about. Too many interwoven complexities that I can't possibly unravel in one blog post to catch you up on all things. Let's just say that I'm coming to terms with how ill Roi is and how ill I got and how far I still have to go and how Roi is probably done growing since he's been in denial for pretty much the whole show.
Sorry that this isn't all more poetic. I always need to do a bit of admin-style purging before getting to the writing.

purging is good for the soul. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHee, Elsie stole my comment. I call it the hairball moment: I have to cough it up before I can get going. You're throat-clearing, is all! Go for it. And write more, we love to read it. <3
ReplyDeleteYay, there's still people out there! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou seem to have a lot of awareness. That has to be good for your healing. Purge away!
