When I was 10 I began drinking cold medicine out of the bottle behind my parents backs and taking Advil at night, in hopes that it might help me sleep. When is your first memory of using a substance in any way and for any reason? #RecoveryPosse
@PodcastRecovery I think it depends on how one defines “recover” for themselves.
12 step programs don’t own the rights to the word recovery. Neither do MAT clinics. Not does the medical marijuana dispensary. Recovery is an individual process and no 2 people have the exact same goals.
If you’re gonna wear a mask that doesn’t cover your nose, you’re just as much of an asshole as those who refuse to wear one. Maybe even more of an asshole actually, cause you’re clearly trying to get away with murder. #COVID__19#MaskUp
@AmyDresner I don’t understand why we should even have to do that! (And yeah I’ve done that a few times). Who doesn’t understand and can’t respect “leave me alone”? And then turn around and call us a psycho when they continue to harass us and we get angry? Ugh. Yeah I’m fired up about this 1
Praying never came naturally to me, but I wanted to learn how to pray.....so I started out simple, like this: (note that the word “God” can be switched out with whatever word works). #RecoveryPosse
@Midnight_Rain52 I try to remember that I was sick and that I was not operating the controls. Then use it as a reminder of why I never want to go back.
@PaulaJ416 Yes, finally my back is pain free enough to be able to paint again. This is my inside passion. When I can’t be out exercising for some spiritual practice, I paint!
