Recovery Stories

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION Everest is the most popular boy in school. He's handsome, wealthy, and captain of the football team-he has the world at his fingertips, but he's desperately unhappy. And when those feelings become too much to bear, he tries to take his own life. On the surface, Beverly's different from Everest in every possible way. She's quiet, shy, hard working, and keeps to herself on campus, focusing on her schoolwork and her part-time job, distracting herself from her less-than-perfect upbringing. When Everest returns to school after his attempt, he's in more pain than ever. Discarded by his friends, he draws little empathy and too much attention from those who surround him. But when Beverly and Everest meet unexpectedly in a dusty corner of the old library, they discover together just how rich life can be when given the freedom to just be yourself.

After losing the only boy she has ever loved, Jackie must find a way out of the spider web of grief and memory, and hold to the delicate hope of moving forward. ***** Jackie never pictured raising her daughter without Andy by her side. He was supposed to be the finish line, the one she'd always come back to, but the universe always finds a way of turning your life upside down. After a devastating accident takes him away, Jackie is left grasping for a lifeline, trapped in a world filled with memories she can't recover. Leaving home seems like the only choice, but distance can't make the memories disappear or calm the ache of every 'what if'. It doesn't make the pain go away. But love doesn't end with goodbye, or with death. It just changes shape. ***** BENNINGTON COLLEGE #1.5 © 2025 caterina george // all rights reserved

No child should've lived through what Eleanor Laurent lived. The marks of the violence she lived through were still on her skin when she managed to run away from her hell, and dragged into the Order of the Phoenix's business for survival. A war is about to break out, and for the sake of greater good, Eleanor's most horrible parts are used under silks. She's thrown right back into her nightmare as if she had never woken up, but this time around, she won't be dealing with all that alone. BE WARNED: This story might be triggering for many people, read to your discretion. Subjects mainly touched upon will be of child abuse, sexual abuse, human trafficking, forced sex-work and C-PTSD. The subjects are NOT romanticised! They are serious types of violence and I will not tolerate ill-intended jokes or mean comments about victims. POSTED ONLY ON WATTPAD AND AO3

It about the cycles of Love like Crushes, In Love, Heartbreak, Betrayal, Recovery, etc.. Fair Warning they will not be in order as I will just be adding more poetry to this and it also depends on what/when I make it. Theses are my original works of poetry.

The Reapers are destroyed. The war had been won. But another battle is on the horizon. Commander Shepard has sacrificed everything for the galaxy. Was the price too high? Even if Shepard did survive, would she ever be the same? Perhaps no cost was too high. Destroy the Reapers, no matter the cost. That was the objective.

The universe is indifferent. You already knew that. Here's what nobody told you: indifferent isn't the same as empty. HOPANOIA: Red Words to Blue Hearts is a book being written in public - a living document from a trans woman in Georgia who decided that nihilism wasn't the end of the conversation, just the beginning of a more honest one. It's a philosophy manual for people who can't stand philosophy manuals. A memoir for people who distrust memoir. A spiritual practice built by someone who doesn't believe in spirits. A TTRPG framework for the actual campaign of your life. It calls itself a "religion of one" - anti-dogma, open-source, built to be forked and remixed, never followed literally. Its central move is Anomance: the act of animating a dead universe with meaning, not because it's true, but because it makes the universe livable. These are the working notes. 196 parts and counting. Written through mental illness, HRT, grief, political collapse, and the daily act of refusing to go quietly. The real book is being mined from this archive in real time. You're not reading a finished thing. You're watching something become itself. If that sounds like your kind of book - you're already the reader this was written for. Signed: a thot that likes thinking.

Take a dive into my mind, you might find something to hold on to.

In a world where humans have driven hybrid beings into exile, peace is a lie told to those who never knew the war. The year is 2150. Technology has reached the stars, but hatred still festers in the shadows. One young boy-born with strange powers and treated like a monster in his own home-sets out on a desperate journey to find where he truly belongs. Hunted by the past. Guided by whispers. And haunted by a riddle that may decide the fate of the world. Is he just a child searching for love... Or is he the Winged One destined to save-or end-it all?

Some heartbreaks don't shatter you, they unravel you thread by thread, until you're forced to rebuild the parts of yourself you once gave away. "The Version of You I Never Met" is a "Tribrid" book, part memoir, part emotional guide, part psychological blueprint for anyone who has loved someone who couldn't love them back the way they deserved. Blending raw storytelling with attachment psychology, this book explores the very anatomy loving an avoidant partner, carrying emotional weight for two, surviving emotional absence and walking away from a bond you wanted to кеер. Through a story blood-stained with devotion, confusion, imbalance, heartbreak and clarity the author dissects the hidden patterns behind avoidance, the cost of loving someone who hasn't healed, and the quiet, almost celestial strength it takes to choose yourself when choosing them costs too much. Its not a story about blame it's a story about limits, healing, and the power of understanding the truth even when it hurts. If you've ever begged for clarity or felt invisible in the arms of someone you loved, this book will feel like finally being seen. If you're learning to trust again, it will remind you that healing is possible, and that some endings are actually beginnings in disguise. For the heartbroken, the healing, the emotionally attuned, and the lovers who have always loved too much. This book is your mirror, your medicine, and your metamorphosis. It will break you, then rebuild you. It will explain him, then return you to yourself. It will hurt - then then it will heal. "He loved you, just not in the way you needed. You loved him, just not in the way he could hold."

15 year old Nianzhen Lee has a fragmented psyche, a traumatised past and a hostile environment. When he is given a chance to get revenge and purpose by creating a literature club, he accepts the mission and meets others who have shared the same suffering as him.

Ethan Cole is the kind of man who shows up. For his family. For his responsibilities. For the life he's built. So when something begins to feel off, he ignores it. At first. But the distance grows. Small moments slip through his fingers. Conversations blur. Reactions don't come when they should. And the man he sees himself as begins to feel just out of reach. His wife notices. His son feels it. And Ethan is left trying to hold together a life that's quietly unraveling. As buried pieces of his past begin to surface, he's forced to confront something he's never truly faced. Not just what's happening to him-but why. Because the hardest truth isn't that something is wrong. It's that it's always been there. What Lurks Beneath is a powerful story of identity, trauma, and the cost of disconnection-and what it takes to come back from the edge when everything you love is on the line.

Peter runs a bookshop where the days repeat and the solitude never asks anything of him. He opens early. He sorts shelves. He goes home alone. He likes it fine. Then Sara walks back in after years away, her five-year-old daughter Mia trailing behind her with a stuffed fox and too many questions. They knew each other once. Teenagers circling the same store without ever quite colliding. Now she's tired, fierce, and carrying more than she'll admit. Mia claims a reading rug. Sara starts staying longer. And Peter realizes the emptiness he'd grown used to was never comfortable at all. But Sara fought hard to stand on her own. And the closer Peter gets, the more she fears losing the ground she built beneath her feet. Until Tomorrow Comes is a quiet, character-driven story about love that arrives gently and leaves a mark. About the difference between being alone and being lonely. About what it costs to let someone in and what it costs not to.

She spent years confusing pain for love. From a controlling home to toxic relationships, heartbreak after heartbreak shaped the way she saw herself. She chased validation in people who only wanted pieces of her, mistaking attention for affection and obsession for love. Every person left a mark some gentle, some destructive. There was the first love she broke. The liar who kept disappearing. The man who taught her the truth can hurt more than lies. The one she trusted before realizing "stop" should have been enough. Between panic attacks, eating disorders, guilt, trauma, and the desperate need to feel wanted, she slowly began losing herself. But healing starts with honesty. *The Things I Mistook for Love* is a raw and deeply personal story about toxic attachment, self-destruction, sexual trauma, mental health, and learning that love should never feel like begging someone to stay. This isn't a perfect love story. It's the story of a girl trying to survive herself.

She escaped her past. A new country. A quiet life. A chance to start over. But healing doesn't happen all at once. And sometimes, the people who make you feel safe... become the ones you don't know how to face.

But when she finds the crumbling Worth family, she gets herself tangled into things she never wanted to play with again: grief, love, and murder.
