August is overdose awareness month. So hi there, coming from someone who has survived 13 OD attempts and 4 resuscitations.
Life has never been an easy journey for me. In any way. From losing family and friends in a multitude of ways to having major mother issues that anyone can see from mile away, I’ve wanted to give up at so many points in my life. And I tried to. But clearly the world wants something more from me if I’m still alive after everything.
And if the world still has hope in me then it has hope for you too. So anyone who may be struggling, during this month or any other remember this: don’t give up on yourself because the world hasn’t given up on you either.
