Some days it is so hard to write. I come across certain subject matter that brings me directly back to that moment. I heard that in recovery, you are truly healed when you can read your story and not cry. It is hard, and yes, many tears have been shed, so I guess I am not fully recovered. All I know is that I am not in that same place, I am somewhere new. That was the past and I must forgive myself, learn from my mistakes, and move on. I take things in moderation as recommended by my mother, such as advise,and actions. I love my life, but do I love myself yet? I am still learning and that's a smart thing to do! Never ignore advise from those who have been there...Love, Peace, and Happiness to all...
Someone Like Me-Is there a connection between addiction and mental illness? I say there is! Some people say that addiction is a choice, but I know for a fact that it’s not. Mental illness plays a big part in a persons decision making process and lifestyle choices. I am now in the middle of writing my 7th book and I will explain in detail how my chemically imbalanced mind thinks and reacts. Well, at least how mine did before treatment anyway! Sure, I am no pro and I am not a doctor, but I have a genuine real life experience and a story to tell. I hope that you will open your mind to the possibility, or shall I say the reality, that addiction is indeed a disease and not a choice.
