No I have not. I have not experienced my disease’s full potential. I cannot accept something that I have not experienced.
I definitely acknowledge the full measure of what I have experienced to this point. I used to think that there was a big difference between ‘acknowledging’ and ‘accepting’. After looking up the definitions of these words I can say that I do accept the full measure of what I have experienced.
I accept that I can’t use successfully.
I accept that once I take one, I’m fuckin’ off to the races and may not stop for years.
I accept that everything I had that I valued (personal relationships, financial stability, emotional stability, clarity of focus, living accommodations) was thrown away or used up in the name of ‘one more’

I accept that I have harmed myself.

I accept that I have a lot of work to do on myself.
I accept that there are those who will never understand so its best to just keep my fuckin’ mouth shut.

I accept that if I start getting high again, I will become even more insecure and self-hating than I was before.
I accept that eventually I’ll be okay.
