I am very grateful for my 2 days in detox and 28 days inpatient. Aside from education, it has granted me peace of mind, something I have been searching for all of my life. I know today, that the only way I can maintain this peace of mind is through a daily reprieve of our program.

Some don't make it back.
I can wake up and look in the mirror.
Don't blame others for being here.
I know the guilt, I know the pain, let it go.
This isn't the end of the world, it's the beginning.
I have PMS, pain misery and suffering.
Nothing changes out there, once you stop, stay stopped.
Going back out, it doesn't get any better.
Get a sponsor, get a home group.
Show them that you can do it.
You don't have to go back out there.
What price do I have to pay?
When is it going to be enough?
Don't value myself the way that others perceive me.
Whatever I put before my recovery, I will lose.
Do what is suggested.
Do things with your support group.
I am powerless over my drug of choice.
Run the tape far enough to the end.
I knew it was going to bite me in the butt.
Spiritually, mentally, physically... done.
People, places, things, nothing changes, nothing changes.
You have to do the footwork.
You have to get connected.
You have to use the phone.
Drugs are only a symptom of my disease.
My "reward" is killing me.

This is only 1 page of 8 that I have of quotes, I will continue to add to this post, maybe I will do 1 page a day and that will help me stay sober for the next 7 days.
