Anyway, one thing that stood out to me, out of all the points made, is that i am seemingly stuck in a frustration that might be normal for people new to recovery. Yes, I am at the point where I am frustrated with the fact that people around me are moving on while I am struggling to catch up, and I do confess to wishing they would stop moving forth to catch me. But, I also realise that I am an adult, and I must focus on taking care of myself, even if that means struggling quite a bit.

I am very thankful that you guys are here to not only support me, but educate me.
