Health Care Professionals in Recovery
I am a registered nurse and a recovering alcoholic. I still sometimes find myself struggling with the shame and embarrassment of being an alcoholic in this profession, even though I know I'm just as human and imperfect at the next person. I am in a recovery monitoring program, as well.
Just seeing if there are any others here in the same boat. I am a member of a couple of boards that are specific to nurses in recovery, but this board has been a terrific help to me and I have a great deal of respect for so many of you.
Thank You.
