Loosid Sober Tip of the Day July 08

Don’t let the gifts of recovery take you ot 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:

It hit home so hard when I got out of prison I had so many things to do I had to get my license. I bought a car. I got a new bed just the simple things that I was and everybody would tell me how proud they are of me the little girls, I said even my PO she said that I’m doing a good job but then I do the back and I have not followed through with going to AA or NA every week. I’ve done some online and then I feel like this group is going to help me a lot but now I see I can have this group but I need to do it along with the program so that’s 100% how I relate to the subject.

So this Week not next I need to make sure I get in an NA meeting and look for a sponsor to. These are just things that are new to me and I don’t know how to do it.
