Louise’s Sober Story

Morgan Scherer, Alabama, 34 Years Old, Was An Alcohol Addict

I was a gradual build up from age 22 with alcohol and cocaine. Cocaine became the worse problem for me in the year 2011; my alcoholic stepdad had a bleed to brain age 44 yr old after a certain time in Queen’s hospital he was sent to the ward for his rehab.

I felt relaxation, weight gain, hair loss, stress, paranoid. Risky behavior way too much, shut people out. Control from partner, depression

.

March 2017, Another breakdown unusual happens in life. I left the job before I was sacked. The left relationship was controlling through money and substance in the end.

Full of potholes and great support from some services but not from others. Other people tend to be draining when I’m a giver there a lot of taking take takers

My recovery journey I feel stable. It’s just the household and nature of the environment, I think could drag me down mentally not to use. Just mentally. It’s an ongoing recovery for the rest of my life.
