    THE VERY MAD MADDIVA!!!

    I see alcohol as my worst. I guess I had to get here to realise. It is a natural progression. Oh and by the way don't want to be married until I am clear in my head. I said that as if in the 'ideal world'. I have never been sure why things happen and often ask 'why'? Do you know I fantasised about my mother regretting me leaving when things were intolerable as a child, and then when I met her, her illness was so profound that she could not even remember giving birth to me? So from that all fantasies died. She remembered all the rest just could not remember me. Mind you that is not such a bad thing, - cos hey mother I cannot remember been born to you!!!! I only wanted to explain and what I did not say which is relevant is that I have been addicted to substances from about the age of ten when I went on the search for escapism. Is that not what we all do? I am not that messed up really and when I am rich will open a home for kids from care from the ages of 16-24 for they were my hardest years. The childhood was neither here nor there. Shit happens and it is life. People have had it far worse. I am alive and happy - ish. Many lessons have been learned along the way and that is the point to life - the lessons. may you all find peace in your heart. For I am getting there. regards to all.

      G'day Maddiva. You don't sound messed up at all to me, and you don't have to be rich to open a house for kid's. That's a great idea when you're ready. G.

            HI Maddiva: You are incredibly brave to post your story, I think many of us can write a book on how life has dealt its cards to us. You are brave for helping yourself, and feeling that YOU are worth it, because you are. We can all learn to love ourselves more. I thing that addiction is a form of self abuse and I am learning how to love myself and hate my addictions that are doing NOTHING good for me. Big hug and much love. God bless:h

              Hi Maddiva - I just read your post. You have had some difficult challenges and some traumatic events which I am sure will be with you forever. But you are such a strong person. And I can tell you are a brave, honest, caring person and you deserve all the love in the WORLD! We all suffer from addiction and swans said it so well, we need to learn to love ourselves. I work on it every day. I think I can say I like myself now.... working on the love part. Big hugs to you.:l

                    You are truly inspiring; after so much hurt and turmoil to stand up yet again and take control. You are a fighter and I see you succeeding all the way. You deserve the picture perfect life - now go out and get it.
