Sense of self challenges

[thrihyrne]

So of late I've been really struggling with how to define myself. In the past it was easy. I was a writer. End of story. But now I don't know how to define who and what I am. I'm not defined by my recovery journey, I'm not defined by my work, I'm not defined as a writer since I haven't written anything in about a year-and-a-half… I don't have a tribe and I'm finding it very difficult to make one. I'm Evan's partner, but that doesn't seem like a full definition of who I am. I suppose right now I'm just Kristi, on a path — putting one foot in front of the other, trying to retain my integrity, and make choices that I can be proud of both now and down the road.
