00:00I've been drinking for 22 years, since I was 13, heavily drinking, and then the last four years

00:06was probably the worst. I decided that when my kids went back to school, I was going to go to

00:12the hospital and detox. And I was in the hospital for two and a half days. The second day was the

00:19worst because I was really sick to my stomach. But her hardest days are still to come. The shaking

00:25didn't really start until they released me, which I wish that they would have kept me there longer.

00:30They gave me medication, and my sister and my mom have been helping me get through this.

00:34Being an alcoholic wasn't your dream. It just happened. If you could have chose to be an

00:39alcoholic or not to be an alcoholic, I don't believe you would have chosen to be an alcoholic.

00:43No, hell no.

00:45Well, so, I mean, it's just what life threw your way, and now you're having to deal with

00:50consequences.

00:51It's not fair.

00:53In that moment, everything she'd been holding in finally surfaced.

00:57It's not fair to you, to you.

01:00It's not fair to yourself.

01:01It's not fair to my f***ing kids.

01:03It's not fair to yourself either.

01:05You, you, you didn't.

01:06You matter.

01:07I don't give a f***.

01:08You, you need to.

01:10Day six progress.

01:12A little better.

01:15Trying to be a runway model?

01:16Yeah.

01:17These seven days, I ain't losing them.

01:20I don't care what you, you, you, or you think.

01:22I know.

01:23I ain't f***ing losing these seven days, no matter what.

01:25And that determination would be tested in the days ahead.

01:29Day nine.

01:30I'm doing good.

01:32I am.

01:33I'm, my body is having some troubles.

01:36I have had a splitting headache all day.

01:39I've been wanting to lay down all day.

01:41I cannot kick it right at ease.

01:43But here's day nine.

01:44I'm still sober.

01:46I look like my head hurts.

01:48My body's tripping out.

01:49But I'm doing really good.

01:50And as the days go on, Heather can almost see the person she's fighting to become.

01:57Even if her body hasn't quite caught up yet.

01:59And I am feeling okay.

02:03There's one thing that's like I'm having, I'm having, I'm disassociating.

02:07And I, that's something that has been going on for the last few days.

02:11And still not sure what that's about.

02:14Um, I'll probably read into it and see what's going on.

02:18I imagine it's just my brain figuring out.

02:20I can't stress it enough.

02:23Stay f***ing strong.

02:25Whatever you're going through, be what I'm going through is getting sober.

02:29Or if you're getting sober off of drugs.

02:31Or if you're going through a breakup.

02:33Or if you're going through a mental crisis.

02:36Whatever you do, you got this, boo.

02:39I'm serious.

02:40Stay f***ing strong.

02:41Manifest that strength into your life.

02:44Like, when I'm having an issue with what I'm going through,

02:47I am seriously talking s*** to myself in my head.

02:50Like, don't be stupid.

02:52Don't be f***ing stupid.

02:53You know better.

02:54I never do.

02:56I'm not stupid.

02:57That's how I get through it.

02:58It's what I do.

03:00You got this.

03:02I got this.

03:03I got this.
