I’m having a real hard night. Starting over is hard. Dealing with life is hard.

Starting over is only the beginning to a lifetime of success. Find the joy in the process of recovery. The only thing constant in life is change and us addicts and alcoholic don’t like change. Change is good. Learning new habits and letting go of the hurts habits and hang ups is a process one day at a time. We didn’t become addicted in one day and we don’t automatically instantly recover in one day.
Slow down Breath and listen to the birds go for a walk in nature do something unfamiliar that’s healthy and don’t co-sign the negatives life remind us of. Turn the page. We don’t live at that old address. We Do Recover and Life takes on new meaning and new interest form. We don’t use no matter what. Volunteer somewhere if you have too much time on your hands it’s certainly been beneficial to me and I have to get out of the prison I created in my own head. Good luck on your journey and I’m here if you ever need

You’re not starting over completely from scratch, you’re starting over from experience. There’sa lesson in everything. Think positive. Keep going.

Hope things get easier for you. Focus on individual goals so you don't get overwhelmed. You'll find you have help when you aren't trying to do everything at once.

If you are starting over only means you've already did the hardest part once. You have so much more control this time. Take what you learned the first time as a list of your dos and don'ts. Reach out you don't have to do any of this ALONE.. No one has too. It's much easier talking to someone who has been there and that is a stranger sometimes. Feel free to message me anytime. Stay strong
