S7E2: In this episode of the Red Roof Recovery show, Tanya revisits the pandemic - when addiction and suicide rates more than doubled.  During COVID, Tanya became an online facilitator for the Toronto group of SMART (Self Management And Recovery Training).  After 2 years of volunteering with the group, she was told that "Moving forward, we don't feel you're a good fit." Tanya has been told countless times that she's not a good fit.  It was part of what kept her saddled with addictions most of her life.  Hearing it again - after being free from addictions for a long time - didn't throw her into the vortex of despair again.  This time, she took affirmative action to "never let the fuckers pull you down!"
