I Was Convinced That Rehab Was My Only Choice

I came to as he was nudging me awake. The nudging turned to screaming as he was trying to help avert the kids from what was going on. I was out of my right mind but quickly snapped out of it when I realized what transpired. I had fallen asleep on the floor in the living room. My young daughters were having a playdate in the backyard with neighbors from down the street. It was 2 in the afternoon, definitely not a time that most moms are passed out on the carpet floor of a living room. Let’s be real, most moms don’t fall asleep on floors in their homes. That is not the usual place for a nap, especially for someone who is not a napper. The only times that I have napped in my life were when I was drunk or very sick. And, a parent doesn’t nap on the floor with kids in the backyard unless something is truly wrong. <a href="https://medium.com/black-bear-recovery/i-was-convinced-that-rehab-was-my-only-choice-42988e2492ab">Website</a>
