Hi
I was able to abstain from my addiction yet was not fully committed towards my recovery.
For me to abstain only and do nothing else than just go to work was white knuckling my recovery.
The recovery program was going to help me fill my life with healthy habits.
The prefect idea of recovery is to move from isolating myself to interacting with people and get out and about.
For me to exchange an unhealthy habit in to healthy habits.
By being more accountable to myself and honest with myself I was going to come out of my shell built of fears.
By writing down my needs, writing down my wants, and writing down my goals I was going to extend myself in so many ways.
At the recovery meetings I was going to expose more and more of myself through my therapies and to able to articulate my feelings and emotions in healthy ways.
My fear of being honest would reduce, I would trust more, I would come out of myself even more.
The recovery program was going to help me heal my hurt inner child.
Please keep going to meetings, you will benefit from it in so many ways.
Love and peace to every one.
