Recovery Specialist
What qualifies me to help others? Experience, lots and lots of personal experience, ongoing research, several years of working a recovery program and first hand healing from numerous conditions.
For the majority of my life, I have either been in therapy, recovery or both. I have attended hundreds of 12 Step meetings and therapy sessions, I have participated in 15 different recovery programs, and at this point in my life I am very grateful to say that the majority of my mental health issues are manageable and / or sufficiently in remission.
I am also an author, with two published books on the topics of self-awareness and recovery. In addition, I have sponsored numerous people worldwide over the years, have a number of paying clients, created this website, a YouTube Channel and post inspiration almost daily on social media.
My life is far from perfect, however if you had any idea what I came from compared to where I am now, my qualifications would have more meaning.
About My Past
Hello, my name is Jeff Rounds. I am an addict, alcoholic and codependent with PTSD and Bipolar Disorder in recovery. My recovery journey began in 1989 when I first attended AA and Al Anon meetings. For most of my life I have struggled with addictions and mental health issues and I came from a very unhealthy childhood. The image to the left is me around the age of 13. I am staring into the camera lens of my father, an abusive dry drunk who beat his sons and molested his daughters. Look into my eyes, and if you are an empath, it will be clear what my state of my was at the time.
Both of my parents were very sick people and with the best of intentions, they created 6 very broken children. My two older brothers essentially took their own lives, treating their severe traumas with drugs and alcohol. In my life, I have experienced first hand, numerous mental health conditions, including:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Anger issues and rage
- Mania
- Bipolar Disorder
- Numerous addictions
- PTSD
- ADHD
- Insomnia
- Schizophrenia
- Stockholm Syndrome
- A Psychotic Break in 2017
- My first suicide attempt was at the age of 5
