5 Years Strong: Bobbie's Reflections on Sobriety and Growth
Self-awareness is one of the biggest gifts that I've been given through Five Years of recovery, and it's probably turning into one of my strengths, almost to a fault, like I overanalyze all my actions and behavior, sometimes in the moment and sometimes backwards.
