Choosing Light Over Darkness

I’m a 35-year-old man who has been struggling with addiction for years. I’ve hit rock bottom more times than I can count, and it’s been a long, hard road to get to where I am today. But I’ve finally realized that I don’t have to be defined by my addiction. I’ve made the decision to seek help and access addiction health care services, and it’s been the best choice I’ve ever made. It’s not easy, and there are still tough days, but I’m learning to choose light over darkness. I’m grateful for the support and understanding I’ve received, and I’m hopeful for a brighter future. If you’re struggling like I have been, please know that there is hope and help available. You are not alone, and it’s okay to ask for help.
