Let's look at how that plays out.
The Weight Pima County locals Carry
Before anything changes, it helps to name what you are carrying. For many Tucson locals, it sounds something like this:
Exhausted from hiding it?
The lies. The cover-ups. The fear of being found out. Living a double life is draining what little energy you have left.
The thing that helped you cope now controls you?
What started as relief has become a prison. You know it's a problem. Quitting sounds simple until you try. The shame spiral makes it worse.
Here's what that looks like in practice.
