Hi everyone I’m Lizbeth but I go by Liz , I’m finally a full 31 days sober ! Super proud of myself but I feel like everytime I take 1 step forward something pushes me 5 steps backwards and I’m scared one of those push backs might get me to use again
Congratulations. You’re doing it. #ODAAT!!
Thank you !!!
Hey Liz - Congrats on 31 days! You earned every one of them so you should definitely be proud of yourself. I remember facing setbacks early in recovery (and even now) but every time you don’t give into your addiction when you run into a challenge, you’re only getting stronger! So don’t be paralyzed by fear, just keep moving forward and utilize any of the tools that got you to 31 days when the going gets tough. You have what it takes to go make it Day 32 and well beyond
When you set yourself on a new path, life has this way of throwing challenges at you, almost as if to give you opportunities to PROVE this is what you truly want! I’ve personally been trying to view it less as “steps back” and more like “dancing side to side” while I prove to myself that this is, in fact, the path I want to be on.
I believe in you. You are on a new journey and that can be scary AF. Especially when resources seem so scarce. Your strength and determination will lead you through this, even if you gotta “dance” in place for a while
LIFE is not EASY. BUT WE CAN GET STRONGER EVERYDAY
All I had to do in the beginning was pray every morning for Got to remove my obsession, then thank Him for another day sober at night and not pickup between the time I wake up, and the time I go to bed.
