A long post, but hopefully some of you will take the time to read it.
This post encouraged me to invite Nancy Alspaugh-Jackson to share her story with us
I believe we are only as sick as our secrets, and that as Christ said, “The truth will set you free”, so here goes.
A little less than 3 years ago I was a broken woman. I had been struggling for 6 years since the death of my husband Read who died from a long and horrific battle with cancer, I had lost everything financially, I was trying to balance running my non-profit and raise my autistic son Wyatt. I never allowed myself time to grieve. I thought God had abandoned me when in fact I had abandoned God. I had struggled off and on my whole life with drug and alcohol addiction, as well as addiction to other forms of escape – addiction to working, to working out, anything to numb myself, to not feel emotional pain. This time I found myself hitting bottom. I was on 4 Xanax a day, 4 anti-depressants, Ambien to sleep, all washed down at night with a bottle of wine.
