Recovery is not a team sport.
It's a solitary distance run. It's long, it's exhausting and it's lonely as hell.
The length of your recovery is determined by the extent of your injuries.
And it's not always successful.
No matter how hard we work at it, some wounds might never fully heal.
You might have to adjust to a whole new way of living. Things may have changed too radically to ever go back to what they were.
You might not even recognize yourself. It's like you haven't recovered anything at all.
You're a whole new person with a whole new life.
