Conviction. I'm greatful for conviction because it keeps me from becoming complacent. The double edged sword there for me is I will grow anxious and fearful of relapse if I don't utilize self love and erase in-humane expectations as well because in my mind I have to be in-humane as failure is not an option. So I'll reach out to community because I can't do it by myself and not hold myself to inhumane expectations. So conviction helps me to realize when or if I'm holding myself to inhumane standards as well and that protects me from burning out. So dual sided conviction helps to keep myself balanced between growing complacent in my recovery and self care. If your struggling your not in it alone. Reach out so we can carry one another's burdens as we are all human and the weight gets heavy.
