What if everything you've been taught about addiction is wrong?
In Underwater, Andra Annette takes readers on a raw and deeply personal journey into the heart of addiction-not as a moral failing, but as a desperate cry for help. Through powerful storytelling and unflinching honesty, she reveals the hidden currents that pull people under: childhood wounds, unmet needs, societal pressures, and the relentless chase for external validation.
Addiction doesn't discriminate. It lurks beneath the surface of everyday life, taking many forms-alcohol, food, work, social media, perfectionism-each one an attempt to fill a void that was never meant to exist. And yet, for those who find themselves drowning, there is hope.
With the wisdom gained from years of personal recovery and the profound lessons of the 12-step program, Underwater explores what it truly means to heal. It challenges the stigma, offering a new perspective on addiction, self-worth, and the power of community.
If you've ever felt lost, unseen, or not enough-this book is for you. If you love someone who struggles with addiction-this book is for you. If you want to understand the human condition in a way that changes how you see yourself and others-this book is for you.
You don't have to drown.
Together, we rise.
