• Metanarratives is a personal blog dedicated to sharing my journey from high anxiety, Alcoholics Anonymous, divorce, parental alienation, and trauma memory (CPTSD) to healing and a new life. The posts will cover a wide range of topics I explored over ten years. Many posts were inspired by authors I encountered along the way who made a significant difference for me personally. And along the way, I discovered I was neurodivergent, which explained a lot of the challenges I had throughout my life. It’s been a challenging journey for me, but ultimately very rewarding.

    So, I am sharing these posts with the public to possibly help someone else gain some understanding of their own lives. If this doesn’t resonate with you, please just exit the site.
