❤️🩹 Hello! My name is Somer! I am choosing to share my story in order to inspire those in active addiction and or in any phase of recovery ❤️🩹! As of 2025 I have 10 years focusing on truely recovering not only from the drugs and withdrawal but moreover recovering & repairing the pieces of me that stopped me in my tracks of goodness and took me down that long dark road! I stand here today as a real testament of God & his will over our lives so long as we seek him! In 2011 I had my first overdose, in a locked bathroom, by myself;…. I knew right before I fell to the floor that I was gonna die.. when I landed I felt the back of my head hit the wall behind me & then it was black… just black.. when then I see my body n**e & limp suspended face up in this vastness of black.. when I would then see from what would be the top right hand side of said atmosphere a HUGE hand come down and grab me at my belly button.. this hand began yanking me upwards vigorously.. after what would be just a few seconds of this I hear audibly “GET UP”, then a second time “GET UP!” When then I find myself waking up in that bathroom, still alone, door still locked.. absolutely NO outside intervention! Glory to God! A week or so later I am still using & was actively vomiting, my now husband asked me “what’s goin on with u?” In an attempt to deceive him I said “ I don’t know, maybe I’m pregnant “ we went right then for a test I was sure was going to be negative… was it however??? No! I was pregnant… from there I was successful at getting sober for my child to be safe & healthy… if not for Gods intervention I would be passed away & they would learn I was pregnant.. that’s not what God had in store Amen.. I did relapse after he was born… spent a few more years using when I died for a second time.. only this time an ambulance revived me and there was no hand, no light, no savior… this one really got my attention!!! It was 2015 .. I got my behind into rehab and ran with it! I still choose therapy & group’s! Everyday I am alive & eager to be better & better! In sharing my story I hope 2 things stick with you! #1 not only is GOD real, he actually loves you “seek first the kingdom!” God is your ultimate support when u feel you have none! And 2nd don’t give up, stay focused & remember your why’s… to get a real grip on why you resorted to drinking & drugging in the first place in order to rewrite your story & rewire your framework & view’s… I’ve learned so much about myself the good, the bad, the ugly grasping the fact that’s it’s not only okay but crucial for survival & a prosperous life.. thank you for allowing me the opportunity to encourage you on your journey, where as my pain & suffering will not be in vain but to teach, guide & prove that WE DO RECOVER & time is of the essence! With love 💕
