OASAS Stories of Recovery
Allison of New York
Posted: October 9, 2009       Individual
Months in recovery: 11       Age: 16       Gender: Female

I am recovery. I’ve been sober for a year on October, 21,2009. I will also be 17 in October. Recovery is real and it is great. Hi, my name is Allison.

Recovery has opened my eyes and my heart to so many great pleasures in life. I made a decision to turn my will and my life over to the care of a higher power whom I choose to call God. I love my new life and even though it is not easy, I have the support of my friends, family, and meetings.

Every day we wake up is a new beginning. Today I am sober and genuinely happy. Life has so much to offer so please don’t waste precious time any longer. One day at a time we can all beat this!

I AM ,WE ARE,RECOVERY!!!!!!!!!!
