Checking in after a while.

Hello again to everyone. It has been several months since I have posted on this forum. All is well so far, nearly two years sober. But, lately I have been feeling some messages from the enemy. I'm here to seek help in ignoring them. I'm pleased to be back. You'll be hearing more from me now. 🌵😀

I would venture to say that the very fact that you can identify messages coming "from the enemy" and are able to dissociate from it, is more than half the battle. Just identifying those urges as the "enemy" (or "the Beast", in Rational Recovery terms) already takes its power away. The Beast tries to trick you into thinking its urges are your own thoughts, but you know better. Once identified, it becomes a lot easier to turn away from.

Congrats on 2 years, that's awesome!
