Trigger warning: Sexual assault in childhood & adulthood, brief mention of animal cruelty, religious trauma
Today we hear from Misha. He describes his childhood as both boring and traumatic, having grown up queer in a strict religious household. His brothers introduced him to the liquor cabinet, and after they moved away, it became all his. A sexual assault in college sent him spinning out of control and he shortly found himself in the psych ward, which proved to be less than healing. He found recovery through a series of steps in harm reduction, coupled with healthy accountability and remembering the things that used to bring him joy.
