Just can't see the gifts sometimes 😞

Struggling Help
#1

I truly am grateful and thankful for the many countless blessings in my life. I am fully aware how fortunate I am to be alive, sober, secure and in need of NOTHING :eyes: I have everything I could possibly need and want. I decided to take a little time off of work starting today ( Another luxury and blessing most people do not have, I know :eyes: ) and have been in a mood all day. It's crazy. Even after years now of sobriety I'm afraid my brain and body still crave a substance to "make" me feel "good" it's ridiculous and selfish to feel the way I do sometimes. My apologies :disappointed: Thank you for reading my complaining little post 🫤

Dion, I can relate. When that happens to me I correlate that to my ego/addiction. Once I realize it, then I can dissolve it. I meditate on gratitude specifically.

I play the whole thing out….
I take the drink …. Then another … one more ….’F it ‘….another ….then the lights start going out …I can’t remember much when I wake up but, I DO remember how CRUSHING this feels

& then I don’t want the drink
