It’s ok setbacks are not failures as long as u pick urself up and try it again
A set back does not make you a failure , it makes you human. Pull yourself up and try again. Find your support system and lean on them. Surround yourself with positive energy.
Are you figuring out your triggers and how the vice has served you? Every experience that gets you closer to identifying those things, is not a failure. It is only a failure, when you stop convincing yourself that what you’re doing is simply immoral and selfish. You’re coping with something that this behavior helps to rebalance. It might be maladaptive and you could become happier with a better method, but until you figure out what you’re coping from and how this activity keeps you feeling powerless, you’re chances for recovery are very slight.
Hey my friend – try not to beat yourself up….
Recovery is not a race. You don’t have to feel guilty if it takes longer than you thought it would.
My father has been an alcoholic since I was a toddler. I watched my dad lose himself that ruined his career, marriage, our family. I am in my early 30s now and my father is homeless somewhere out there in the world…..
Although we don’t know each other, I want you to know that for what it’s worth I am so proud of you. You should be so proud of your journey to remain sober. You are courageous and brave. YOU are on the journey I only wish my dad had the courage to begin…
Don’t give up on yourself. You are not defined by your relapses but by your decision to remain in recovery despite them.
I am sincerely rooting for you! xo
