There are two major fears as a matter of fact...

One, going back to using, that is, fear of relapse...

Two, losing a loved one...

Thanks Magellan for providing this opportunity to look at my fears...

Although I encounter many little fears on my journey through life, my biggest ones are:

Losing touch with recovery, which could lead to unhappiness, dispair, and probably using.  I see many people disappear from the rooms and I wonder what happens to them.  I am afraid if I disappear it won't be pretty.

Losing a loved one.  I feel like I couldn't bear it if I lost my spouse, a child, or a grandchild.  Of course I would survive it, but I feel like I wouldn't be able to.  That is where the fear comes in.

Returning to what I was, a  drug addicted , imprisoned, sick, uhappy, angry, sad, lost, afraid person.

I fear an unhappy future because of bad choices and behavior and being alone.



Everything i love dissapearing.


Death.
