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.

By God's Grace I have been sober quite awhile.
These words still ring true.
Life even living our best life will throw us curves .. and with those curves can come a lot of emotions.. AA is a great catcher. And we have a huge team to give us their experience and advice if we share. If we only ask...

I love that we have the chance to get better at life by not running away. I’m in the thick of it right now. Life is proving to be very difficult.my Just one hard thing after the other. Being three years sober makes it harder because I’m truly facing my truths instead of avoiding. I thought I’d be free by now but life is a constant challenge for me. Thank God I don’t have the urge to drink over it. I stay close to meetings and sober people. And connected to my higher power. I also ask for help when I need it and even if I don’t sometimes. The promises haven’t come true for me yet but I keep working hard and not drinking because I’m sure they will come true eventually.

This is absolutely true.. since I became sober I was telling my therapist that I cry almost daily.. cry for the pain I caused my family, and myself. I have so many emotions that I’m dealing with since I’ve numbed myself for nearly 5-6 years. I will add that it somewhat is refreshing, I feel challenged and motivated to continue to work hard in my recovery. It’s worth everything :100:
