Writing Your Recovery Story

  1. What were some of the early indications that you were beginning to have difficulties?
  2. Briefly describe yourself and your situation when you were at your worst.
  3. What helped you move from where you were to where you are now?  What did you do?  What did others do?
  4. What have you had to overcome to get to where you are today?
  5. What have you learned about yourself and what we call recovery?  What are some of the strengths you have developed?
  6. What are some of the things that you do to keep you on the right path?
