The “restore us to sanity” part of Step 2 made sense to me pretty quickly.
The harder part was the idea of a Power greater than ourselves.
I did not suddenly understand God.
I did not suddenly become certain.
I just became willing to believe that maybe my own thinking did not have to be the highest power in the room.
That small opening was enough to give me hope.

10 years sober. 10 years of not being sure if I would make it out alive. Every day is mentally draining.
I battle depression, anxiety, trauma, and ADHD on the daily. It will always be a manic mind.
But here we are today. For the first time, I am letting it all out and spelling it out on paper.
This book is not just addiction. It is the mental state behind it. What triggers it, what feeds it, and what molds it into a nightmare.
This is Chelsea Elizabeth McGurk-Lehman. This is ZERO, before the apprehensions. This is where I was found.
