Loosid Sober Tip of the Day November 30

Sober Tips
#1

Resentment is the #1 offender. It kills more alcoholics and addicts than anything.

We talk about resentment frequently in the daily tips for this very reason. Why? Because repetition is the mother of skill.

In the same way we need to remind ourselves what works, it is equally as powerful to remind ourselves what does not work.

Most of use reading this have a resentment or two in our back pockets. Even if we have done the work to free ourselves of resentments, so many of us hold onto a few as we feel we are not ready to let them go.

Just for today, make a decision to let them go. You are drinking the poison waiting for the other person to suffer. Choose not to suffer today.

I’m new here… and I’m full of resentment… mainly for myself. I resent choices I make. I feel at times like I am someone else watching myself make these choices and not stopping me. It’s like I am enabling myself to make more and more bad choices. I’m here for help and I definitely don’t want others to suffer on my behalf.
