Towels
Truth is, since the day I got sober I have never thought about drinking or overusing my medication. I was very sick for a very long time. I self medicated. I’m mentally ill, tbh I thought everyone felt like I did. Smiling in front of people and no one knows there’s gunfire going off in…

Desperate shades.
I have a hell of a story behind all my comeuppance as of late. I figure a person cannot know what real pain is, and in most cases, love, until they’ve felt desperate. You know the kind desperation that will alter you. For better or worse it’s something that changes you. I think when a…
