All right, OK. Kimber, baby, I got you some help coming.
Do you remember Elmira from Looney Tunes? Yeah. So my family called me Elmira because her thing on the show was, like, she would kiss and hug and squeeze animals until they died. And so that's what they called me because I always had some kind of critter or, like, stuff like that.
I do. I do. I carry it with me. You just never know when you're going to need Narcan.
I just had to revive somebody the other day here at an AA meeting. It was different being on that side of things. Like you don't even think about the fact that you almost died. That's the crazy part. Like I forgot about a couple of my overdoses because like, cause you kind of just fall asleep and don't even know that you fall asleep. Like I'd always get mad. You get mad at the person.
You're like, what are you stressing out about? Like I'm here, I'm fine. Like what is the problem? And then I watched people overdose and it is, it happened. It's like three minutes between when you arcane them and they'll come back and it feels like an eternity and all those things run through your head. This person's dead. I don't know if this person's coming back.
And then you realize, oh, you're like, oh, okay, this was pretty scary.
So I went off to detox and detoxed with no medication.
It was awful. I just remember going in and I couldn't lay in the bed. It was so cold. They had the AC blasting. It was summertime. Of course, AC's on, but you're going through withdrawal, so you're so cold. I couldn't lay in the bed because they give you these thin blankets. I went in the bathroom where there's a heater thing in there and laid on the floor. They dragged me out.
They wouldn't let me stay in the bathroom. They're like, you can't lay in here. And so then I waited for them to leave and I went into the bathroom. The only thing that felt good was I stripped down naked. It was a really small bathroom with like tile floors. So I had to throw my clothes out of the door back into my room.
And just lay on the tile and I had the blanket over the heating vent and I just like had the heat on there But like the coolness on my back and then the heat.
Oh my god It was the only thing that like kept me being able to like sit through it And I mean I was throwing up the whole time and I don't know how long I was there like it was a while It just felt like days and days went on And I didn't think it was ever gonna stop and I just kept telling myself that I could do it, that I really had the strength to do it.
I always said, like, my body was too poisonous for anything to live inside. Like, I, you know, I had done so much to myself and just, like, berated my body and, you know, there was no way anything was going to be able to live in this toxic environment.
And I think there was definitely a part of me that thought I didn't know how to be a mother. So when I found out I was pregnant, even if I had to do it by myself, I was going to do it. I'm 31 years old. I was sober. I moved to a brand new place, started with nothing. And like, I knew I could do this. If I could do everything I was doing, I could do this too.
So I never for a second thought that I was going to not keep the baby.
Being in Darabella is boring. It's boring. Really boring.
