I had numbed myself out for a very long time and it felt so good. It felt really good and I was starting to realise that the only thing stopping me from having that feeling was me.
In this episode of The Pink House Chronicles, you'll hear AbbeyA's powerful journey from a chaotic childhood to a hopeful recovery. Growing up in Wichita Falls, Texas, AbbeyA had a unique upbringing, spending weekends at her Japanese grandmother's house and weekdays between her divorced parents' homes. Despite the instability, she found solace in music, spending time in her dad's guitar store. But as she grew older, the challenges mounted.

Her story takes us through the highs and lows of addiction, from working gigs at a biker bar to losing friends to heroin overdoses. AbbeyA's candid reflections on her struggles with amphetamines and alcohol paint a vivid picture of the toll addiction can take.
After years of battling her demons, including a tumultuous relationship and becoming a mother, AbbeyA hit rock bottom during the COVID-19 pandemic.

AbbeyA shares the transformative experience of going through detox and residential treatment, which helped her reconnect with herself and her children. Now, almost a year sober, she reflects on the importance of community support and the joy of rebuilding her life.

It's a reminder that no matter how dark things may seem, there's always hope for a brighter future. Tune in to hear AbbeyA's inspiring journey and discover how she found her way back to herself.
