Re: Detaching
Hi! Welcome to Soberrecovery.
I see by your profile you're new to this board. Take a read around and slooowly let the messages come through. Detachment is a hard behavior for me to keep and I've been practicing a while now.
I have never seen anyone in recovery *get it all at once* so be gentle with yourself. I came into the program at 45 and tried to get it asap and soon found out for me it would be a life changing process that would require daily maintenance on my part. I still don't get *it* on my bad days, the trick for me is that I need a support group who will give me a hand UP when I am down, a reality check when I need one, and love and caring when I can not love myself.
So you have come to right place. We here at SR have been where you are and understand as few others can.
Love and prayers from one who cares,
Daffodil
