Loosid Sober Tip of the Day February 06

Sober Tips
#1

Don’t let the gifts of recovery take you out of recovery.

When entering recovery, if we have the willingness to do whatever it takes to get sober, we find ourselves ‘on fire’ with the program. This simply means we are reaping the rewards of working the program. Often, it’s because when we enter recovery, we had the gift of desperation.

As time passes, we start to build a beautiful life. Unfortunately, for many, life seems to get a bit too full to keep working the program. We cut back on meetings, we cut back on service, we stop reaching out to others and before you know it, we relapse and have no idea why.

Everything you have built has been a result of the spiritual program you have now pulled away from.

Always remember that the same things you had to do in your first days of recovery are the same things you need to do throughout your recovery.

If you feel you have fell victim to this, the great news is you can change right here. Right now.

How did this tip resonate with you? What are the most important things you have done that got you sober that you do every day to stay sober? There are many people in the Loosid community who need to hear what you have to say.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

As soon as I start feeling disconnected or getting complacent I reach out, I rededicate and trudge back into my recovery.

This was so great!! I feel that God keep giving me little messages everyday. I am only day 9 with no alcohol, and i feel great. Missing a community connection though. Online os great but i need people! I have not been to a physical meeting yet. I would love to sometime.

Check out a physical meeting - they’re way better than digital. There’s always good and bad, just take what you can! One thing that helped me for that social connection was joining a small(er) gym (OrangeTheory) I found amazing people there that were also trying to get better. (Very similar to AA and helped build my self-confidence!) YOU GOT THIS!

Hang in there Natasha, your here now and that’s what’s important. Your honesty, your truth, and the tools you use to stay sober. One day at a time. Keep strong, go to meetings, get a sponsor, get women’s numbers get a solid support group a home group and you’ll be ok. Congratulations on being on this app and having all of us support you. :purple_heart:
