someone said something in chat. and i felt as if i needed to respond
when i was institutionalized several young adults spoke to me as if i was a counselor or therapist. i was neither a counselor nor therapist. I was an addict. addict/alcoholic. and still am an addict.
i am of the belief that i can very easily go back to being a horrible addict. it could happen.
right now i am in a program of "harm reduction."
