Hey there! 2020 I think has been hard on all of us I know, but right now I feel like I'm really going through it. Right now it's literally moment by moment telling myself not to use and I am so afraid I may just say screw it and use anyways. I'm not sure what to do. I'm going to meetings and have a temporary sponsor but I feel like I'm lacking general support.
Hi. I saw a comment a few months back. It was listed on the app. A member replied “finish the thought” when someone thought about drinking. It's so true. Ask yourself how will you feel and what would happen if you drink?
Are you following the 12 steps in addition to going to your meetings? Are you able to go to more? Some in recovery attend a meeting daily.
What's tough for you?
It’s so hard in the beginning- I know you’re doing everything you can but just allow yourself to feel the waves of emotions and let it pass. Talk to your sponsor, work the steps. It takes some time to get past but it will come. Post in here & join the groups. Find ways to be of service. It helps
Hello,?
I'm not sure if this is exclusively 12 step oriented community buy I'm doing a harm reduction approach having been totally sober for 6 years and working in recovery. I find this is best for me right now. Anyway, I'm preparing to taper off kratom and looking for support during the process! Hope you all are well!
Hi, @yuriel85293. Nope, this isn't an exclusive 12-step program.
I'm glad you are here. Congrats on your sobriety. If sobriety is your goal we're here for you. You got this! I'm proud of you. 1 day at a time.
