'
I was in some ways successful in life (both real and according
to popular myths). In other ways I was an anxious mess of a man.
Life was full of confusions and basic unhappiness. Sometimes things
went very wrong. More than 30 years ago I joined a GROW group.
That move has changed my life around, many times. In GROW, initiated
by people who had usually been at some point, far more broken
than I, I have learned about the true meaning and importance of
having good friends. My life is so different from the way the
trend suggested it was to go. I believe I correctly understood
the peril I was in' - Peter
Mental health is truth - the conformity
of my mind with reality.
It comes from thinking, speaking
and living truly.
A true response to each situation,
to my human helpers and the Supreme Healer, can and must be made
at every stage of my recovery or personal growth. (Principle 14,
GROW Program)
