Day 3, proud and clearer headed. Its so hard to not be obsessed with all the ways I've let down and hurt the people I love. It seems like the clarity that sobriety brings comes with sometimes crushing shame.
But I'm choosing to be hopeful and work the program and be my best self each day. I'm blessed to have some great supporters.
Best to you all!
Congratulations on the 3! That is outstanding. The shame and guilt will ease up. Give it time. Don’t try to actively fix things just yet… that’s why it is step 9…. You are not ready to fix the past. Focus on staying clean. Don’t pick up. Just do the next right thing. And be kind to yourself! You have been dragged through he!l. One day or one second at a time. Whatever it takes.
Thank you, Tim! Just what I needed to hear today. Seriously, thank you
We have all been there man. Stay strong. Serenity will come in time.
