This hit me hard, especially the parts about growing up in the village and the feeling of wanting to belong. It’s so easy to see how that search for connection, which is so normal and human, can lead us down paths we never intended. The contrast between your professional success and personal unraveling is stark—a first-class degree and a CEO title couldn't fill that void. The line that stuck with me most is: 'recovery wasn’t about fixing my circumstances, but about changing myself.' That is such a profound and hard-won insight. Thank you for your vulnerability in sharing the ugliest parts, not just the triumphant ending. It makes your healing now feel so much more real and earned. I'm cheering for you and your continued journey, one day at a time.
