Recovery

Some people stabilize systems before anyone realizes they are failing. They absorb pressure, carry others through breakdown, and often receive neither recognition nor relief. Recovery examines what sustained responsibility does to the body and the self. It names caretaking as infrastructure, explores the cost of long-term load-bearing, and offers frameworks for recovery and repair when the weight has finally been set down. You kept things running. What did it cost you, and what comes next?
