Loosid Sober Tip of the Day December 15

Facing Life on Life’s Terms

When we get sober, we no longer numb out life’s problems.

We actually feel our feelings for the first time, and often times, for most of us, this can be very overwhelming.

Take solace in knowing that you are now facing life on life’s terms.

When you face life on life’s terms and find solutions to challenges as opposed to running away from them, you get better at life.

Will it be uncomfortable at first? Absolutely.

During this time, it is very important to reach out to other people who have been in recovery and have some sober reference.

These are the people who will get you through these challenging times.

In unity there is strength.

This is absolutely my favorite philosophy. Just because we quit drinking and using doesn’t mean all of our troubles will just disappear. But we can learn ways to deal with them and accept them. It’s a wonderful life!

I was sent this tip at just the right time! I was just sitting here feeling really frustrated for a whole bunch of different reasons trying to talk to myself and tell myself I just have to be patient and understanding and then “ding” here comes this tip. Thank you for that

Thy Will Be Done

I don't know exactly what "life's terms" means. I think I am finally just facing life instead of avoiding dealing with problems and hiding in the haze.
