Six months ago I was in a pretty bad head space. I saw no end to the
hopelessness, loneliness, and isolation that intertwines with one
another in addiction. My depression was gaining strength each day in
my addiction. I saw only one solution. Then my higher power threw
me a hail mary and before I knew it I was walking through Discovery
House’s door.
Even though I am around 90 days and have a lot of work to do,
internally I’ve already gained insight and tools from the Discovery
House. To help my healing on the road to recovery I have the program
at Discovery House, going to NA and AA meetings, trauma counselling,
in-house counselling, and most importantly the support. Today I have
freedom. Freedom from the chains that bound me to my addiction
and freedom to see the world as I once did; sharper, clearer, and
brighter. The worst days are part of my journey and gifts to learn
from.
