Never shared this on social media before in the 6 years I've been sober, but there was once when I woke up from being passed out from being up I don't know how many days, and the guy I was with had bound me naked. I tried to get up and he continued to beat me and held a very heavy object over my head. What was that object? He was going to bash my skull in. He thought that I was there to invade the house and take him to prison. Even after that night when my life was flashed before my eyes, I continued to use. Every time I thought I would hit my rock bottom, something worse than that would happen. When you're driven by this drug, you are making decisions that do not make sense, and you're choosing sex over your life.
