Daily reflection aa free#
It’s not something you can cure yourself from with willpower alone, but when people do seek help from professionals and support groups, they have been shown to be able to live happy lives free of the temptation to drink again. Once surrendered I found victory–victory over self-indulgence stubborn resistance towards everything given including sobriety serenity peace…Īlcoholism is a disease. I came to realize one day when nothing else could defeat its power-that there really wasn’t any recourse except surrendering myself wholly into a higher authority who would provide guidance on how best to live once more without this slave master controlling us from within (Alcohol). While drinking alcohol took over every facet of my life, it became the symbol for all that was wrong and perverted in me. Our admissions of personal powerlessness finally turn out to be firm bedrock upon which happy and purposeful lives may be built. Anyway, as you all know, Daily Reflections is a program designed to help alcoholics stay sober. It’s been a while since I’ve last done one of these, but I think it’s important to share my thoughts every now and then. We perceive that only through utter defeat are we able to take our first steps toward liberation and strength. Hey everyone, today I’m going to be talking about Daily Reflections June 20. The anxiety is so high that it takes all of my energy just to function normally during the day.īut what sucks more than anything else about being an addict is feeling so alone with your problems even when you’re surrounded by people who love you unconditionally, care about you deeply, and want nothing but the best for you. What will happen if I relapse? Will this time be worse than last time? It feels like there’s no way out this time. So many bad thoughts are running through my mind.
My head is pounding, my stomach is in knots, and I can’t sleep. It’s been a few days now and I’m starting to feel the weight of my addiction.
