I am Memrie and I do not at all like to ask for help, but I am learning that it is okay when you are in great need. I am currently at Oxford Treatment Center for officially 50 days today. I completed 30 inpatient and am currently in secondary treatment, or rather what they call the Partial Hospitalization Program. I have spent over 15 years being a Registered Nurse. I loved my career and love people. I traveled to many places and worked during the COVID pandemic. I can be honest and say it took a toll on me along with many other things in life. I found myself in the darkest place that I could ever be in. My life became a nightmare and I let the BEAST of addiction win. Addiction led me to places I never thought I would end up. I do not wish that nightmare on anyone.
At this time, I am in desperate need of assistance. I have decided to remain here at Resolutions (Oxford Treatment Center) to complete the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). I will remain housed here and continue classes 3 days a week for 10 weeks. I currently attend classes 5 days a week from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., which will continue until May 16th, then convert to IOP. I am also looking into sober living after this. I WANT as much help as I can possibly get. I also attend NA meetings and have an amazing sponsor. The Beast of addiction will not win in my life and I will fight one day at a time. My insurance covers most of the program, but I am responsible for room and board. I am at the level to be able to get a part-time job now and have applied to several places and have a couple of interviews set . However, I will not be able to work enough hours to cover the desperate need I have at this time. I need to pay the room and board for May and June. I also have my things in a storage unit and I truly do not want to lose my things. I need to make a payment very soon. I was able to get an extension on my car loan until May 15th, but it will need to be paid then. I really need to keep my car to be able to work and eventually go to sober living. Of course, I neglected my car and it needs brakes and rotors. Also, I need to pay the insurance on it so that I can have it on campus to be able to drive to work. I need some personal items also.
Again, it is so hard for me to ask for help, but I am in desperate need so that I can continue this treatment. It is life or death to me at this time, but I am fighting for my life back. Thank you all. The most important thing that I need is prayers. I love you all.
