DRAGGING YOURSELF BACK UP AFTER HITTING ROCK BOTTOM by Nada Abdelkader
We’ve all been there before. Life is really not going your way and there’s trouble grabbing you at every end. This is something we’ve all dealt with, to a degree. Except this time the trouble is different. It won’t end anytime soon and you can tell the consequences aren’t going to go away in a day or even a week. This is your life now. Except, is it really? Rock bottom is the worst spot you can be in because you cannot get lower. There isn’t an exact definition of what it contains, but that’s only because rock bottom is different for everyone.
