I am writing this blog to share my personal journey with recovery from THC overindulgence and alcoholism and to reflect on the damage that I have caused to myself and others for years.

I am extremely blessed to have so much love and support in my life from my family and friends, but have squandered this love for so long under the haze of this disease. My internal suffering has been palpable for many years but I did not know how to stop myself and my destructive behavior…until now!

I am now quickly learning how to love myself first and as a result will be a better man, father, friend and son.

An addict cannot see past their own selfish ways, and it takes a severe life event to realize the damage of one’s ways. This event is often called “hitting rock-bottom.” Some do not like this term and it has a different meaning for everyone.

This blog will serve as a journal about my days in recovery from abuse and self-loathing. I am happy to say that the “real Nick” is BACK!

Thank you for reading these words and for traveling on this journey with me.
