Man, I've never done this before but I'm 37m with BHP and severe substance abuse issues that have added to my horrible decision making. I have a 6 yr old daughter who's fucking amazing. Man I've never been able to manage my bpd especially when I'm in active addiction so I wasnt a vry good father in my opinion which is clouded by my distorted self image and shit but I live far away from her and she stays with her mother who is a great person in terms to no drug use violence and she's a stable individual good job everything I'm not. But I'm clean now and really working on trying to get my life together for once mind you I've drifted around my whole life and the only stable living situations I've ever had was with my parents growing up and my daughters mother so I've been in every situation you could think of and I'm battling with myself how do I accept my failure at life up to this point and move on? How do I develop a positive attitude to succeed which I'm terribly afraid of and sabotage every time. Ppl ask well isn't your daughter enough and I wish it were that simple but I'm fucked man and I'm barely holding on this is a lot longer than I'd hoped for but someone please suggest something that's workedor working
