I've been on the brink a couple of times this year. I still need support. How do I hold on?

You have to man, and you will. Thanks, immensely, for posting. Please, immediately, reach out to 988 for connections to clinical support. But, don't forget those around you already. It may seem that you're all alone sometimes; but, there are people who love you dearly. They're a gift to you, and just as importantly, you're a gift to them. They don't want you to be unhappy, and it would pain them if you weren't here. Let them know how you're feeling; and, with the help of clinicians, you'll uplift your perspective. They'll also remind you of how much there is to celebrate. Just this post shows how thoughtful and perceptive you are. You know things could be better, and you want that. Keyshawn, you deserve more, and you're worth all of it. You have to hold on because the future will be so much better. The hurt has been anguishing; but, it's also taught you a lot. You learned how strong and resilient you could be. Please use that insight to guide others and actualize your biggest dreams. You're at the tredge man; you won't miss this chance. And, any time you're feeling down, please reach out to us. We're all on your side man. You got this, and we got you.

I appreciate all the insights, but how do you know when you're at the transformational edge, "tredge"?

Thanks for the question Selena. You're at the tredge when you're ready to intrepidly move forward rather than comfortably--or really, timidly--stay in place. But, the best answer may be you're at the tredge whenever you want to be. You need not wait for a crisis or a moment that figuratively, or literally, tests your mortality. You can come to a moment, during poignant calm, when you realize to be your best self, you need to make decisive changes. Fal, and surrender, to this drive. Actually, you'll get to the tredge multiple times in your life, if you're open and receptive. We all get opportunities together to improve, and overhaul, when needed. When we aren't completely content, it means something, internally or externally, needs to be changed. We should never dismiss these signs. Don't wait for the tredge; dive in. Thanks so much for the question.

I've been battling addiction for more than a decade. My friend saved me with a dose of Narcan 3 weeks ago. Without that, I wouldn't even be here. Am I at the turning point now?
Seminal Wellness Team
Yes, you are. Thank the Universe for putting your friend at your side at just that fateful moment, and giving them the presence of mind to administer care, and, really, save your life. I trust you already have; but, show that friend the deepest, most heartfelt, thanks every day. We're all grateful you're still here. The Universe saved your life, gave you that second chance, because you're worth so much more. No opioid, no substance, can match the light you have to give. But, do you believe that? Think about why you feel you need these drugs. You might have had a serious injury before, and was stricken by severe pain; but, what is it really masking? Is it masking a feeling of not being accepted? Of dreams shattered? Of not feeling loves? It may be all of these or another issue that's equally as devastating. Whatever it is, please believe that you're deserving of all these things, and, perhaps most importantly, you have the ability to secure, and realize, all of them, no matter how many disappointments you've suffered in the past. It's difficult to get to this new, life-giving perspective in a day; but, you can take those critical steps now. When you're feeling overwhelmed, remind yourself of the people you do have--like your loyal, cherished friend--and plan on how you can support each other. Yes, you've reached the turning point, the tredge. Take the first step today, toward leaving addiction on the cliff and leaping over the edge.a
