Saying anything here isn't going to change anyone's minds about me but I want you all to know that I left the house in march and have been sober since then, It's been a terrible couples years and I was too busy caught up being selfish and wallowing in self pity to notice the people around me that I was dragging through the shit with me. Active addiction and mental illness don't excuse anything or lead to direct forgiveness and I know that. I've pretty consistently worked on self reflection and especially now being sober I've kept up with therapy and doctors appointments and other things pretty well. It's hard to really get into anything in detail with strangers but I know the people who've really spent time with me see the work I've been doing. I really appreciate the support and attendance the house has gotten and I love seeing creation in action. Please carry yourself through life with grace. Grace for yourself and for others, so much trouble would've been avoided if I'd have stopped trying to constantly punish myself over things beyond my control for the past two years. Ive deeply hurt the people closest to me and betrayed the trust of friends, a few words here won't change that but I see the things you guys say and it gets stuck in my head and digs at me. I'm open to talk though, I'll reply the best I can here, so if you've got any pressing issues with me or something you think I haven't acknowledged here's your chance to say it anonymously. I haven't made any public statements before because I genuinely don't think handling these parts of life so publicly helps much and often leads to performative apologies but like I said the stuff I've seen here and the other forum these past few days has really gotten to me.
