New life, You sound better today...step back and look at how far you have come. It might not seem like a lot, but this is tough stuff and there are baby steps along the way and you have taken a few.
Now you are ready for some more.
You need to heal from the eye surgery...and need to heal from the addiction at the same time. Both will be painful. How about you heal both of them at once and just get over the hump all together. Look at your new vision (literal) as an opportunity for a new vision on life and your M. Deep down you know you want that new vision of your life, you have seen it, you have posted it here, so now make it a reality.
This is the perfect time to start a brand new chapter in your life. Strong and confident New Life, without needing to wear glasses or contacts and not needing to look at a computer screen and some young punk "player" that isn't really in love with you and you are not in love with him. Give yourself a hug and a pick me up. See if you can get H to pamper you a little during your recovery. Make him feel good when he does the smallest thing, make him feel like a strong and important man for being able to handle everything while you are recovering.
And if worse comes to worse, unplug the computer and take the battery out of the cell phone and envision the new you and new future as you want it and set goals to start getting there.
You can do this. We are here to support you
