180 Degrees in 180 Days

<p>The book 180 Degrees in 180 Days is an inspiring story about struggling with but ultimately overcoming addiction. I wrote this when I hit my 180 days clean in recovery. I wanted to show that I had turned my life around 180 degrees from the direction in which I was heading. My addiction took everything from me; it took my family home career and it even tried to take my life. I was unconscious and unresponsive for over four hours. Luckily by the grace of God I pulled through and was given a second chance at life. I haven't looked back since. You will get a glimpse into how bad drugs can truly mess up your life like it did mine. I talk about how at the beginning of recovery they tell you to take it day by day. Well there were times that taking it day by day was even too hard so I had to take it 180 seconds at a time instead; and if I could do that then I would count to 180 minutes. On those days I took it minute by minute and that's how I made it through my first couple of days.</p>
