Loosid Sober Tip of the Day July 21

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.

Difficult to deal with reality. Or at least tricky. But we got this !

So true! Numbing our pain with drugs and alcohol only postpones the feelings. Once you're sober the postponed feelings can hit you all at once or in waves. Isolating is our enemy. Sharing and dealing with old feelings and new feelings is key. We need each other to navigate through it :revolving_hearts::pray:🫶
