Inhaltsangabe

Sick As My Secrets is a powerful, compassionate, moving memoir told by a strong and honest woman who overcame a desperate need for alcohol to handle stress in her young life. Patricia L. Brooks, immensely proud of her thirty-five years of sobriety, openly and lovingly reveals her compelling story of powerlessness, her journey to recovery, and a spiritual transformation from the lowest point in her life to the apex of her trust in God. Her tale is a testament to resilience, perseverance, and hope for all of us. This is a must-read for anyone recovering from addiction, asking questions about the recovery process, or curious about how a situation like this can happen to a not-so-ordinary young woman with a bright future.
