Loosid Sober Tip of the Day September 29

Learning to love ourselves is one of the hardest challenges we face when entering a spiritual program of recovery.

So many of us look at the harm we have done and think that it is impossible we will ever get to a point to right our wrongs.

Many more amongst us think we do not deserve to get better.

Just for today, give yourself the gift of recognizing your accomplishments.

No matter who you are, you took two very big steps today.

You opened Loosid to get help… and you read a tip to get advice and guidance.

Sadly, there are millions of people on this very day who are stuck in denial and refuse to accept the possibility that they need help, and for this reason they didn’t take any steps.

Take one more step today… walk over to your mirror and look at yourself and say, “I’m proud of you.”

Why? Because you should be.

How did this tip resonate with you? Let us know your thoughts below. There are many people in the Loosid community who need to hear what you have to say.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

I am, by far, harder on myself than anyone else in this world. Great reading!

Very Stuart Smalley, but still true!

I'm 33 days into my recovery and am struggling with a lot of the guilt and shame. I'm also struggling to the point where I feel like I'm forcing myself into my journey into spirituality...and I'm sure that's not the way. I have an awesome sponsor now and he's helping me a ton, but I'm really having trouble putting the "pen to paper" as they say due to the guilt shame, and even depression that I'm battling through. But....I don't want to drink. And I'm grateful for that.
