Author's Notes: This is the sequel to Disposable Life. It's about Bra's recovery. This first part is Bra talking about her recovery. The rest of this is going to be written in third person.
"Recovery was a lot harder than I thought I would be. I thought it would only take a couple months at most for me to get clean. Boy, was I ever wrong. I still refused to go to the clinic. I really just wanted to be at home. But, I did go into therapy and support groups. I went 5 days a week when I started. I thought I would only be doing that for a couple weeks. Wrong! My friends and family were really supportive. I don't think I could have go thought it all with out them. Goten was always behind me, always encouraging me, always believing in me, even when I didn't deserve it, and believe me, there were times when I didn't deserve help from anyone. Temptation was always sticking its nose into my world, but I had to be strong. I had to be because I could no longer let outside forces take my life away, I had to be me again and that's all I wanted; my life back."
