There were moments she shouldn't have survived.
In Still Here, Ariel Simpson shares a raw, unfiltered memoir of motherhood, addiction, loss, faith, and survival. Set against the backdrop of a global pandemic, this deeply personal story follows a mother navigating postpartum depression, recovery, and the emotional weight of raising a child while carrying and delivering triplets-often alone, isolated, and overwhelmed.
This is not a story of perfection or easy healing. It is a story of staying when leaving felt easier. Of choosing honesty over hiding. Of learning that strength doesn't come from silence-but from facing the darkness and continuing anyway.
Written with vulnerability and courage, Still Here speaks directly to mothers, women in recovery, and anyone who has ever felt trapped between who they were and who they are becoming. It is a reminder that survival itself is meaningful-and that even in the hardest seasons, you can choose to stay.
