I now see how owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do. ~Unknown.

Stories entertain and teach. They reflect on experience and create community. Stories about recovery also have the power to heal. Read and share your own story of recovery.
I remember the first time I received peer support. I was feeling alone, like nobody in the universe could ever understand how I was feeling because frankly, I didn’t understand it myself. Sitting with someone who truly understood what I was experiencing, who didn’t judge me for my irrational thinking. To learn that someone had experienced exactly what I was now experiencing, yet they had come through the other side – what a sense of relief. Years later, I am so extremely fortunate to be in a place in my own recovery to provide that same experience to others – to say that you are NOT alone and that you WILL get through this. If I could do it, you can do it too. Recovery IS possible.
