Y-E-T.
You’re eligible too.
If you have been around recovery for a while, you have most likely heard this acronym before.
The reason why this acronym is so important is because it explains the progression of the disease.
If you are an alcoholic or addict, what you will find is the disease gets worse, never better.
We deceive ourselves into thinking we are in control because:
We have not lost our job… YET
We have not lost our house… YET
We have not lost our children… YET
We have not gone to jail… YET
We have also heard people say:
We only drink, but have never done cocaine…YET
We only do cocaine but have never done crack… YET
We only do crack but have never picked up a needle… YET.Alcoholism and addiction are diseases of YETS. You’re eligible too. While any of the above alone will eventually kill us, we still spend all of our efforts trying to justify that we are OK because we haven’t reached our YETS.
Just for today, take solace in knowing that there is no need to reach your YETS.
If you feel you have reached your YETS and are reading this, know there is one yet you have not reached YET… and you never have to provided you ask for help and are willing to work a spiritual program of recovery.
Why? Because you deserve it.
