Just 2 months ago, I was wallowing in how gruesome and terrible my life was. Day after day and pill after pill I was caught in a viscous cycle of misery; not knowing how to break the cycle. I never realized, up until recently, that all I had to say was “no, not today!” Recovery teaches you that you have the power to choose your happiness. You don’t have to live in misery if you don’t want to. The way I see it is, if you choose recovery you have the freedom to be happy or miserable. If you choose addiction, you don’t get that choice; you just stay miserable. If you’re sober curious and find yourself wanting better for yourself, I think you already know what choice to make! You just need to take that leap of faith towards recovery. Break the chains of constant misery!
