My book, Against Such Things: A Memoir of Trauma, Addiction, & Survival is on sale for only $2.99 this week.
l was going to wait until some “Substance Abuse Awareness Month” or “Trauma Survivors Week” came around, but decided that wasn’t necessary. There are people suffering NOW, & I sure wouldn’t have made it out of the perpetual pain & chaos – which was my life for so VERY long – if my support system had waited for the stars to align to share a message of hope.
*SO*
For the still-suffering addict, for the unhoused parent without their children, for the person who JUST stepped back into the free world after being institutionalized, for the young LGBT individual questioning their faith: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. MY STORY IS YOUR STORY. THERE IS HOPE, AND IF NO ONE HAS TOLD TODAY – OR FOR MANY, MANY DAYS BEFORE – YOU ARE LOVED.
