Meet Beautiful Disaster Tina: She Realized How Wonderful Life Really Is.

My name is Tina Amstutz Kenyon.

 

I was born in 82 my father committed suicide when I was only two years old.

My mother basically raised me and my brother by herself even though she remarried when I was 7 years old. She taught me how to be strong and independent on my own. That wasn’t realized till later on in life. Needless to say I became an alcoholic when I was 19 years old and I started messing with drugs.

 

I first got married when I was 23 years old. I thought because we lived together we should be married. He was abusive mentally and emotionally and then it turned violent. I contemplated suicide myself many times but it never happened, I got divorced when I was 24 years old. As I was trying to figure out who I was and wanted to be, I met my second husband and we both were alcoholics at the time.  As time was going by and in my sober moments I realized I deserved much better than I was allowing myself to have.

 

I became sober after about 6 months being married to him and I stayed married to him for about 8 years. He also became emotionally and mentally abusive. The marriage was lifeless and loveless and I felt that I was the problem, truth is I realized just how wonderful life really is without the drugs and alcohol!!!

 

So, I have stayed sober now going on 12 years drug and alcohol free!! I never gave up the dream of doing what I love! I recently got married in 2017 to the most amazing man ever!! He is my prince charming and helped me follow a dream of mine, which is to be a truck driver and in about two weeks I will be going to school for just that!! 

 

This is why I am a Beautiful Disaster.
