Why I Recover Out Loud

May 9, 2109

26 days clean and 23 days smoke free!!

Some are perplexed why I am being so public about so many of the details during my active addiction and recovery.

Writing provides clarity and provides keys to locked places inside of me.

Writing helps me be more honest with myself and I hold myself accountable to all of you.

The more who know my story, the more difficult it is for my addict mind and perhap one day my writings will help one struggling addict stay or become clean.

I can only keep what I am willing to give away.

One of the ways I can search for truth in recovery is to write.

I left the hateful rhetoric of Facebook to come here to carry a message of hope and healing I'm in recovery from addiction and rebuilding a life filled with purpose and creativity. Whether I'm playing the piano, baking, gardening, or knitting, I’ve found healing in the simple, meaningful moments. Buzz Kill Diaries is where I share honest reflections on recovery - one day at a time.
