Loosid Sober Tip of the Day July 22

I NEED HELP.

These three simple words are the most powerful words in recovery.

Remember, there is no graduation date in recovery. Every day we have the ability to learn more and put more ammunition in our spiritual toolkit.

No matter the length of our sobriety, there will invariably be times that we need help.

Whether you are starting your journey, or are long into your recovery, always put yourself in a learning mindset.

The first thing you need to remember is, when you are struggling, say the three words that no addict wants to say. These are the same three words that save us one day at a time for the rest of our lives.

They are also the same three words that started us on our sober journey.

The courage in recovery comes from our ability to be vulnerable. It’s OK not to be OK.

Just for today, have the courage to ask for help if you are struggling. You will be surprised how many people are there to support you when you do.

If you are willing to give help, reach out to your sober network to see how you can be of service. We can’t keep it unless we give it away.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

It true. It’s hard to say need help. But if that’s what it takes. I’m willing to do it. I’m willing to do all it takes for some sober sanctuary

I find saying it out loud helps me even when I'm alone. I swear God hears me and Poof help is there. Even silly things like dropping a screw on the ground and not being able to find it and feeling my patience running low.. before i end up loosing it and swearing I say I NEED HELP and most times i find the screw or someone walks by at that moment or someone pops into my head that i can reach out to.

Thank you for this message today. I have definitely been struggling recently.
