Today we’d like to introduce you to Tanya D

Hi Tanya, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?

My journey in recovery started when I almost lost my life while using my substance of choice. My “issues” really began with all the traumas in life – emotional abusive and narcissistic mother, bullies at school, abusive friends, abusive boyfriend. I’ve had anxiety as long as I can remember. I never felt good enough or like I fit in anywhere. So I used substance to drown it all out until that no longer worked and I had to make a choice: keep drowning or find a life preserver. I chose to find a life preserver and started my recovery journey in August 2013. Since then, I’ve not picked up a substance and I had to learn to live life without that crutch. A few years into sobriety, and my chronic pain journey started. I found healing again in a community of like-minded individuals. A few years after that, I had a mental health crisis that almost caused me to relapse and loss everything. Instead of that path, I choose to find different professional help and a new recovery community. While I’m still working on my mental health and trauma, I’ve found my resolve to stay in recovery. I would have been lost without my people and my recovery toolbox. My resiliency to pick myself up each time is due to all the things I’ve learned and continue to learn in recovery.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?

Not at all! I’ve struggled with it all and then some. The biggest obstacle is myself. When I think “I got this” or “I don’t need them”, I’m in big trouble. Asking for and receiving help has been the most challenging and rewarding thing I’ve ever done.

We’d love to hear about any fond memories you have from when you were growing up?

Summers hanging with out my paternal grandparents, especially my grandmother. I could actually be myself and be in a home that was free of judgement and shame.
