    Recent and past losses have really impacted me lately. It's ok to not feel ok about death. I keep reminding myself it's healthy to process it, even though it's painful. I'm doing it without any alcohol/drugs, so that's a start. I'm leaning on my support system instead.

    Addiction is a family disease. Here's a small part of the story between my Mom and I. It's taken a long time, but we have a relationship now that I'm really grateful for. Recovery and working the steps play a HUGE role in that. Maybe this will give others hope who may be dealing with a similar situation with their loved ones who have addiciction and/or mental health issues. Things CAN get better if you put in the work.
