Synopsis

Surviving Myself is a memoir about shame, damage, self-deception, and the first opening toward recovery.

Bill Tierney tells his story as he remembers living it, including the thoughts, emotions, confusion, and distorted perceptions that shaped his choices at the time. He writes with honesty, without trying to dramatize what happened, excuse the harm, or force the story into a tidy conclusion.

At its heart, this is a book about what can happen when pain goes unrecognized, shame stays hidden, and the strategies we use to survive begin to hurt the people we love.

Names have been changed to protect others, and the story is told with care for the people who were struggling in their own ways.

This is a book about the beginning of reckoning. It is about the first painful steps toward personal responsibility, the relief that can come from telling the truth, and the possibility of meeting oneself with honesty rather than punishment.
