Andrea is a friend whom I always enjoy listening to when she shares. This is the first time I’ve heard her story.
She started using alcohol and drugs in her late teens but up until that point she says she had a lot of unhealthy ways of dealing with life and a lot of depression and fear. She was screaming out for help and was suicidal long before she even drank. Andrea says she always had an obsession of some sort going on. Her parents and her doctors were trying every way they could to help her. By all accounts , Andrea’s parents are angels.
She says that today, for her, there is no chemical solution for what she has. I absolutely loved when she said that showing up to meetings is THE HEARTBEAT OF HER RECOVERY.
She picked up not because things were bad, at one point she picked up because things were good....baffling!
Andrea is such a strong woman...I’m so impressed with this young lady. She is going to help a lot of people. You’re gonna be better off for listening to this.
Andrea spoke about the halfway house in Salisbury where she spent some time getting sober. Here is the link to The Maris Center 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
