Loosid Sober Tip of the Day January 12

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:

Stay close to God, and the love of my daughters keeps me on the straight and narrow road to recovery. I like being sober. A life of opiates meant I was out of control. My whole life was do I have enough pain pills to last for the month, I was bloated, 30 lbs heavier, non commital to my daughters, always disappointing them and my husband. So much regret. I never want to live that life again. Especially bc I am now blessed with grandbabies. New life. A new chance to be better, stay the course, stay connected with my God. Work my program, help others in the program.

Be present. Avoid getting sucked into regrets and resentments. Practice writing gratitudes. Go to meetings.
