Hi, my name is Peter. Throughout my life, I have lost some important people. One of the kindest and most genuine people I have ever met, committed suicide because he could not take the pain away anymore from using alcohol. I lost my cousin because she didn't think she had any other options but the bottle. I have had friends jump out of buildings thinking they could fly from getting high. I also missed the last day of my grandfather being alive because I was too busy going out to get wasted. To be honest with you I was at the tipping point of losing myself. My addiction started to take its toll on me physically, mentally, and spiritually. Until the point that I could not go on anymore or see a way out of this black hole. If you think that was the toughest situation I ever had to deal with, think again. I've been a recovering substance user since 2020. I have taken the steps to ask for help. I have put myself in rehab. I have changed my 36-year substance abuse life, into a clean, sober, and positive one. I have gone through all the pain, sweat and tears myself. My journey almost killed me, and I don't want anyone else to go through the hell I went through. In "My Unmasked Truths," I share my personal story of losing important people in my life due to substance abuse, including a friend who committed suicide and a cousin who died from alcoholism. I also recount missing the last day of my grandfather's life because of my own addiction. After realizing I needed help, I took the steps to recover and have been sober since 2020. Through rehab and my own perseverance, I transformed my 36-year substance abuse life into a positive and fulfilling one. I want to share my journey with others so they know they are not alone and that there is hope for a better future. In this book, I offer my insights and lessons learned to help anyone struggling with addiction find their way to sobriety. If my story can help just one person, it will have been time well spent. I wrote this book as a promise to my friends and family members that I will help as many people as I can get their life back on track and so nobody else must suffer or feel like they must do this all alone. If this book helps you find yourself then it would be time well spent. In loving memory of Jani, Minna, Tauno (my grandfather) and everyone else that left this world to soon.

Hei, nimeni on Peter. Olen el m ni aikana menett nyt joitakin t rkeit ihmisi . Yksi yst v llisimmist ja aidoimmista ihmisist , jonka olen koskaan tuntenut, teki itsemurhan, koska ei voinut en poistaa kipua alkoholinkaan avulla. Menetin serkkuni, koska h n ajatteli, ett pullo on ainoa vaihtoehto. Minulla on ollut yst vi , jotka ovat hyp nneet rakennuksen katolta huumeiden vaikutuksen alaisina kuvitelleensa voivansa lent . En ehtinyt isois ni luo h nen viimeisen elinp iv n n, koska minulla oli kiire ulos k nn m n.Rehellisesti sanoen olin k nnekohdassa kadottamassa itseni. Riippuvuuteni alkoi aiheuttaa minulle vahinkoa fyysisesti, henkisesti sek hengellisesti. Ajauduin siihen pisteeseen, ett en voinut jatkaa pidemm lle enk n hnyt ulosp sy t st mustasta aukosta. Jos luulet, ett t m oli pahin tilanne, jonka olen koskaan joutunut k sittelem n, niin eip ollut. Olen ollut toipuva p ihteiden k ytt j vuodesta 2020. Olen edennyt askel askeleelta ja pyyt nyt apua. Olen ollut vieroitushoidossa. Olen muuttanut 36-vuotisen p ihteiden k ytt j n el m ni puhtaaseen, selv n ja my nteiseen el m n. Olen k ynyt l pi kaiken hien, kivun ja kyyneleet. Matkani melkein tappoi minut, enk toivo kenenk n kokevan samaa helvetti kuin itse k vin l pi. Kirjoitin t m n kirjan yst villeni ja perheenj senilleni lupauksena siit , ett autan niin montaa ihmist kuin voin, jotta he saavat el m ns takaisin raiteilleen ja ett kenenk n ei tarvitse k rsi tai tuntea kuten he tulisivat k rsim n tehdess n t m n yksin. Jos t m kirja auttaa sinua l yt m n itsesi, niin lukemiseen k ytetty aika ei ole mennyt hukkaan. Janin, Minnan, Taunon (isois ni) ja kaikkien niiden muistolle, jotka ovat l hteneet t st maailmasta liian aikaisin.
