I couldn't agree more and I really like how you expressed your thoughts on this.
I told myself (and other) at the beginning of my recovery that I am doing this for ME and I deserve to be stubborn on this journey. If I don't want to go to my family Christmas because they are a trigger for me, guess what, I'm NOT going. Don't want to see my friends because they meet in a bar? See ya! I want to spend a bunch of money on candy, sweets, ice cream, guess what I'm doing?
It isn't anything personal against anybody, but I think some people have taken it personally. And right now, I don't care. My life is GOOD, and it's the only life I get.
Thanks for posting this
