Amy was 42 when she journeyed into the pits of withdrawal. Her story includes going from being a mother, a wife, and an avid athlete, to not being able to walk, in a wheelchair, and suffering from all the symptoms withdrawal has to offer. This left Amy with zero hope.

Four years later and knowing what it means to have no hope of recovery, she shares how it is actually okay to not have any.
