Excerpt from My Last Step Backward
I remember the last time I took a step backward. I was in my early twenties, and I was standing on the edge of a cliff. I had been through a lot in my life, and I was at a breaking point. I had been abused, I had been addicted to drugs and alcohol, and I had been diagnosed with mental illness. I was tired of fighting, and I just wanted to give up.
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. I stepped backward, and I felt myself falling. I fell for a long time, and I didn't know where I was going to land. But then, something happened. I felt a hand reach out and grab me. I opened my eyes and saw a bright light. I was being pulled up, and I knew that I was going to be okay.
That was the last time I took a step backward. I have been through a lot since then, but I have never given up. I have learned to cope with my mental illness, and I have managed to stay sober. I have also found a purpose in life: I want to help others who have gone through similar experiences.
I wrote this book to share my story and to offer hope to others who may be struggling. I want you to know that you are not alone. There is help available, and you can get better. You can take your last step backward, and you can start moving forward with your life.
