Loosid Sober Tip of the Day Jul 01

FEAR. False evidence appearing real.

Fear is something that seems to rip through many of our lives. In 12- Step literature, they call it an evil and corroding thread and should be classified in the category of stealing.

There is much truth to this, as fear only resides in the future and we do not know whether any of what we think may happen will ever materialize.

Fear very much fits in the category of stealing and it robs us of the one thing we can never get back… TIME.

Think about how much time you have been afraid of something that has never happened. How much time was spent in those fears?

Choose not to lose any more time. Make a decision to take advantage of the present. That’s all we have. All we ever will have,

I believe a little bit of fear is a healthy thing! I'm scared that I don't know if I have another run at recovery in me so that fear helps keep me from using again. I'm scared of what the outcome will be if I pick up again...sure, recovery can be scary but not like what happens when I use. I keep this fear as a weapon against relapse because I know I have the option to go back out but the consequences scared me more than being sober
