I have been on the front lines of addiction treatment in various capacities for nearly 17 years and this couldn't be more true. For so many, drugs and alcohol are the only things that comfort the trauma that many of us could not even begin to imagine. Those who find recovery are amazing and inspiring because they keep going and they keep fighting when so many would give up. I have witnessed so much hurt and pain but I have been present for so many miracles. If you're in the fight keep trying. There are so many of us that see you and support you.
