That's so true, Marsha. As you suggest, I had no idea who I was or what I wanted from life, before recovery.

Welcome to SR, hope you'll stick around and join us.

Huh! You said that yourself? That is right on.

The way I see it, even though I think I am on the road to recovery, I still don't know my own self. By compassion I do everything I can to get well. The right path is away from the places that offer the things I am recovering from. Ahhh, recovery. Some day, some way, we will get there.
