Ditching Denial

Most of us are difficult to distinguish now. Identify us at the local dollar store and win a prize.

I watched and waited silently for years, until I could remain silent no longer.


Really, don't tell me that you didn't see this coming. In my gut I'd known for a long time that I'd have to step up. There comes a point when the pain of stagnation usurps that of self-imposed suppression. I won't go into the how and why in this post. For now, let's just say I got tired of wearing the key to my own cage, around my neck. Countless thanks to all of you who kept giving me way too many reasons to finally use it. You totally rock my world. ♥

BringChange2Mind.org

This is a special appeal to all brothers and sisters in recovery for whom mental illness is anything but an "outside issue." We who are dually diagnosed can help effect positive change within our own support fellowships. This call to action is not about challenging established traditions; it's about validating our own self-worth, individually and collectively, within our recovery communities.
