Loosid Sober Tip of the Day October 20

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.

Unity is very important to me, it helps me to be able to understand what it is that I can do. I have been in meetings that I have heard from someone who's going through the same thing I'm trying to get input. These are just the things I need.

It was absolutely uncomfortable to feel feelings that I haven't felt in year's.....terrifying to say the least,but in time your able to regulate your emotions,but it's tough but don't give up hope and in time things balance themselves.

I think by listening to every story of recovery I can find online, I'll eventually believe that I can quit too.

I’m realizing how important unity is in recovery and the being around others helpful in so many ways.

Thanks Jordan. It is terrifying. Glad to know Im not alone.
