One often wonders if all the coping mechanisms, recovery plans, crisis plans, and support people actually work when the shit hits the fan - well, they do.
They don't work as seamlessly, quickly, and completely as alcohol and other drugs seemed to work in getting through (or blotting out) a crisis, but they do work. They make the pain, confusion, and fear bearable so I can move forward and through the crisis without causing harm to myself or others. I will survive, and I will thrive.
Short post.
Namaste,
Ken
