My Insanity
This is the truth of what addiction felt like from the inside. Not the version others saw. Not the version I told. But the lived reality of concealment, dread, and survival. Addiction is not a moral failure. It is a progressive narrowing of the self until survival becomes indistinguishable from destruction. I am no longer ashamed to tell the truth about it, because silence is where suffering grows strongest. If you recognize yourself anywhere in these words, you are not alone—and you are not beyond repair.
