Kim Watts - "I detoxed at a friend's house On Druid Hill Ave. Cold turkey then I went into treatment. I had to go by way of psychiatric treatment. Then short term/ detox which that was just part of protocol. Then long term treatment. My clean date is 5/20/2016. This is the date I could get up and move around on my own without throwing up or hurting. Through Narcotics Anonymous and fellowship and God’s Grace, Mercy and guidance I have a 4yrs 2months and 27days. But only day that really matter is I got through today without using."
Recovery is a daily journey with various up and down. It requires a lot of work, change, honesty, vulnerability, consistency, and allowing ourselves to get out of our comfort. A life of recovery is our desire and we will continue to do our best and the necessary work to recover from addiction.
