“In order for me to maintain my motivation to abstain from harmful substances and behaviours, I've had to learn to develop my self worth and my 'value' independent from outside circumstances, perceived realities, and society's opinions of me.”
Life can often feel like a whirlwind, especially when you're on the path to recovery.
