Title: "Recovery: Stages of getting ones life back." Getting one's life back after mental illness, addiction or any tragic event. Bottom level, a dark, dead place. Hard to see reality. Denial. Wanting to give up. Just getting by. Second level, though getting better, still being pulled down by emotions, pain and/or addictions. Having to fight to stay afloat. Feeling overwhelmed at times. Third level, still not light enough, but there are stars to wish on and hope begins. Fourth level, much lighter, there is sunshine! Not fully recovered, but facing reality and hope is maintained easily. Fifth level, a sense of peace and happiness. Feeling like life is really good again. Loving life. Realizing you can be pulled down again, but feeling strong enough to know you know what to do if that happens. 25% of the profits for this print will go to the Partnership at Drug-free.org.
