I wish i could have [...]
MAINTAINING JOY IN UNEMPLOYMENT
I was unhappy, bored and wasting time so I drank a lot. Too much, and I figured out that I didn’t want to waste the things I have learned and the time I had left by medicating so quit drinking. I had issues so sought a Christian therapist who got me through them and [...]
