The substances gave us a way to not have to deal with the self hate
. Now that you’re sober, it’s back and loud as ever. That’s your mind doing what it’s supposed to do… bringing the real stuff to the surface so you can finally deal with it instead of drown it. The writing is huge. Get it out of your mind and onto the page, that’s where it starts losing its grip. If you haven’t connected with a therapist yet, we have BetterHelp here on the app and could be a solid next step alongside the pen and paper work. Give yourself grace the self love journey is a process. Dm me anytime you got this
Cassie, smart move to go straight to the solutions! My self loathing, shame etc., is just my addict/ego trying to get me back to self destructive behavior. Once I realize that and go right into solution I win! 
Also gives me experience to help others in their journey to achieve their freedom.
