As day 6 ends I can only sit with my thoughts of *if only*. If only I had changed this time or that time everything would be different. But all I have is now and I need to change because my body and mind can not take anymore of this self inflicted hell. This disease has destroyed my soul and I want so much more out of life. So I will just keep counting days until the miracle happens...Thanks for letting me vent.

Hi,

I'm reading.

I know it sounds trite, but try and look through the windscreen as you drive yourself forwards - and not the rear view mirrors.

I have to tell myself the same as I'm only on Day 10 and it IS hard not to beat oneself up sometimes.

At least we've made a start eh? Our bodies are thanking us for that small mercy at least.

No, you need to find your true self.

When you do, it'll be way easier to remain sober.

It's a process, it takes time and a lot of work to get there.

It's so worth it.

I sometimes practice radical compassion for myself. I acknowledge every decision I made was all I could do at the time. It was right and helped me get here. I pray for myself and everyone I hurt to get love and whatever I want out of life.
