Stigma Free

Let's shoot for "I struggle" rather than "I am." We aren't crazy because we have struggles. Stigma Free

Men Of Nehemiah

 https://menofnehemiah.org/  214-421-6705 Dallas, Texas Drug and alcohol, through Christ, rebuilding the walls of stability and sobriety.  Please utilize this program for those who struggle with alcohol/drugs rather than jail time. Prisoners can get drugs and alcohol in jail which does nothing but cost tax payers. This program helped my violent offender/alcoholic ex-husband. His program design was for 9 months where he was unable to speak to anyone for the first 3 months. It was hard but whatever it took to get him clean, stable & something to carry him - Christ. God & military like living that stabilizes an individual is key. It is not an easy program. Mention this to the judge should you ever find yourself in trouble. Admission isn't guaranteed but look at this as an option. You will get clean, I guarantee you that.  Information, I pulled, from their Facebook page and my own personal experience because my ex-husband was in the program. 

Suicide Prevention (LGBTQ friendly)

If you do not have a phone, talk to a police officer, friend, go for a walk or admit to a psych hospital. Also, practice mindfulness. I have found that practicing mindfulness helps just about everything- what is good, why it's good and where would I be if I did not have those things. Here are some resources should you find yourself needing them. As I say this, I have to always be mindful because there are circumstances that are beyond reason, intolerant. You think to yourself, umm this chick doesn't know struggle. This person has functional limbs, no shrapnel... no visible burns or scars that cover your entire body. I get it. I cannot know everything, I just can't. I am 1 human in the crowd of many but do know that I don't consider some situations where you're just totally hopeless. For example, my daughter had no chance, at all in life due t...
