I admitted myself into a crisis stabilization unit because I was suicidal, drunk and sick of being addicted to alcohol. I was there for seven hours with my personal property removed and monitored by staff. I was allowed to leave after seven hours.
I haven’t been able to write in this journal for a little while, life has been pretty crazy lately but I feel like I am taking the steps to improve my life. About two months ago, I had a hard day at work, my boss gave me a second warning about being late and warned me that next time I would be fired. On my way home from work that day, I stopped off at the liquor store and bought a jug of vodka. When I got to my car, I immediately started drinking, I felt so hopeless and like I had nothing to live for. I felt like my boss hated me and it seems like she lets other coworkers get away with a lot more stuff than me. All of my bills are late, my pay check barely covers my bills. I started the car and started driving, I was going to go drive my car off the make out hill. I got to the top of the hill and my phone rang. My moms picture was staring at me. I knew I couldn’t leave her, she would be devastated if I took my own life. I knew where I could get help, a friend of mine had went to a crisis stabilization unit a few weeks ago because she had started cutting her self again. I googled the address and followed the directions. When I arrived to the parking lot of the init it was a small white building with red and yellow tulips in front. I was ashamed and didn’t want to go in. There was a knock on my car window. I looked up to see a guy in a blue polo shirt looking at me very concerned. I opened the door and he asked if I was alright. I told him I wasn’t and I needed help. He said he would walk me in and help me check in. I was taken into a room and a lady checked that I didn’t have any drugs or weapons. I was given hospital pajamas and told to put them on. All of my personal belongings were taken into the units custody. Soon a psychologist came into give me an evaluation. After I was at this place for seven hours with staff members monitoring me, I was told I could leave if there was someone who would come and get me. I called my mom and she came and picked me up, was so scared she was going to be mad at me, but when she arrived she gave me a huge hug as tears were streaming down her cheeks, she told me she was going to help me with my drinking problem and she loved me.

My sister-in-law passed away in late May. She was scheduled to attend a concert with myself and my siblings in early July. It was a tragic time but my family pulled through and bonded the best we could.
My sister-in-law was a very special person to me and an important part of our lives. She had some health issues in her adult life. She was diagnosed with diabetes when she was in her 40's. She had surgery on her neck a few months before she passed away. She was scheduled to have knee replacement surgery before she passed away. She was having a normal day on the day she passed away. She had a meeting with someone from her church that morning. She went outside to show her friend her garden and then her friend left. She was in her garden when she suddenly had a massive aneurysm. We had video footage from security cameras to show us exactly what happened. She put her hands to her head and then she dropped to 1 knee. She braced herself temporarily before falling to the ground completely. My brother found her a few minutes later and called an ambulance. She was basically on life support from that time until she passed away about 8 hours later. It has been 5 months since it happened and it still seems so surreal. I miss her smile and I miss her laugh. She had the best laugh! It will be difficult when our family gets together for the holidays this year but we will pull together and honor her in the best way possible.

I wrote about how I lost everything in my life and wondered around lost and hopeless for years. Just when I was ready to give up, life showed me just how quickly things can turn around and, thankfully, for the good this time! Never give up!

Dear Diary,After going through the longest 4 years of my life and constantly feeling like it was never going to get any better, things are finally starting to look up! Since I lost my home, the best paying job I have ever had, all of my material items, my family, several friends, my kids temporarily and any thing else I could lose, I found I was starting to lose my self-confidence, my faith and even myself. I lost everything I cared about, was mentally and physically abused, heart-broken, homeless, hungry and lost. This continued on for years with little to no change or progress, no matter what I did or how hard I tried. Feeling the most lonely, sad. tired and hopeless I have ever felt in life, I started to give up. About a month ago, however, I was shown just how fast life can turn around. I woke up one day that was looking to be just as empty and hopeless as every other day, oh how life is full of surprises! I was randomly blessed with a home after being homeless for years. Someone payed to first few months bills for me, got me moved in and helped me see a light at the end of the tunnel. My kids will be back home with me soon and I am starting to find myself again! Never give up! It's never too late! And do not ever forget that life can change in a blink of an eye. Keep pushing!
