My Little Army

Today I have a little defense system, a little army of reinforcements in place.

For example my little defense strategy includes going to a couple NA meetings
a week, going to church once a week, Going to a celebrate recovery
meeting once a week, service to the 24 club and time in prayer.

This combination works really great for me. Now I may let up and not
do every single one of those things all the time but overall I usually do at
least a combination of 3 of those things a week and the 24 club every day..

If I had enough time to be wasted on drugs and alcohol and I certainly
did as I spent most of my days doing that, then I have enough time to
dedicate to my recovery.

These reinforcements keep me positive so I am not in a bad place spiritually
and emotionally. Plus I don't have a lot of time to sit around and just think.
I am far less likely to fall into anger, self pity, resentment, etc.
Those things will lead me to that stinkin thinkin that leads to a drink or a drug.

Now if I slip up and slowly start dropping my defense, stop doing those things
that keep me spiritually and emotionally fit. I know that my attitude is also
slipping and that a relapse may not be far behind.

A lone addict or alcoholic is in bad company. We need to have some sort
of defense in place whether it be AA, Smart, RR, SR, Counseling, NA, IOP etc

Only you can find the right combination for you.
Some need more more of a defense , some people need less.

Relapse is a possibilty but it doesn't have to become a reality. I do what I need
to do to feed and prepare my army for a daily battle.

To live comfortably and reasonably happy without temptation.

What is your defense today? If your army consists of you and your will power
alone and you are constantly fighting temptation it's likely you have a very weak defense.

And if you are someone who keeps slipping, that very well may be why.

The best defense is a good offense.

Do we need to build on that today? Only you know if you are honest with yourself. Are you stuck?
