An example
“I am still using, and I can still care for myself.”
One truth does not cancel the other. You do not have to settle your whole future before doing something useful today.
Name two things you are holding. Join them with “and.” Then choose one small action that fits where you are.
04 / A note from Tahme Guhn
It started with skin care.
Over the years, small routines helped me become stronger while addiction was still part of my life.
I learned about a succulent. I spent years learning programming. Along the way, I found more ways to understand myself—and an identity I could keep building.
That is where MMM comes from. Your care matters today, whether or not your plans change.
