My therapist – “you’re an addict. You’re in recovery” (say what?).

I don’t care how you got there, or which doctor gave you the pills. There are no healing shortcuts, no way around, over or under it. You have to plow straight through.” I looked up the twelve steps. Can my shrink please put me in a medically induced coma and wake me up when it’s over (approx. 2-3 years from now). On a beach, frozen margarita in hand. (to clarify, I’m just crazy and allowed one drink after the benzo detox.) ??? Step. # 1 yeah, yeah…

Recovery hurts. Recovery is not funny. Not funny at all.
