Recovery is doing what is right, not just knowing what is right.

Considering constructive criticism. Even when it stings.

Recovery is not hating myself anymore.

There's always room for improvement, but I'm alright.

Observing discomfort rather than reacting to it.

Recovery is......

Going out with friends
Remembering the whole night
And not waking up the following worrying if you made a fool of yourself or upset anyone.

Recovery is.........

Getting up in the morning and planning the day, not just reaching for the first drink and worrying what to do when you run out.

Recovery is feeling in control of my body, specifically my brain, arms and hands when I am playing music and not having alcohol's affects hinder my musical skills, expression, progress, and enjoyment.
