Letting go of shame and guilt.
When many of us enter recovery for the first time, we feel shame and guilt for who we are and what we have done. This also happens when people relapse and are afraid to let people know they slipped.
What you need to know is how powerful you are for having the courage to make the necessary changes to build a better life.
The most powerful people in life are people who have the courage to change. You are not alcoholism. You are not addiction.
You may have alcoholism or have an addiction in the same way that someone else might have diabetes. It’s what you do to treat your disease that allows you to be in a recovered state… just for today.
You may have done things in your active addiction which were wrong, but you will have the opportunity to make amends to those who you have harmed and clean up your side of the street.
Congratulations on having the courage to change and taking the necessary steps to build a beautiful life. You deserve it.
