I’ve had a few that were a real game-changer for me, like journaling and mindfulness, but I’m always curious to learn what others find helpful.
You’re so right about the importance of not going through this alone. Sometimes just knowing that someone else understands can lighten the load a bit. It sounds like you’re on a really meaningful path to recovery, and I admire your determination.
