Well, it is Valentine's Day. I don't really get into this commercial holiday, although it is nice to get flowers from my hubby and watch my children smile when they get their Valentine's gift from us. For me, though, today is extremely important. It is Day 1. Day 1 of recovery. I am beginning this recovery journey with a body cleanse--10 days of cleansing my liver. Lord knows it needs it! :) I think this will help keep me motivated. Guys, I am scared and excited. I hate it though, when the excitement and newness wears off. When you are left looking at yourself in the mirror and nothing is new, nothing exciting and all you want to do is get some sort of high. I know I am killing myself though. So I need to not look at the days that are to come of cravings and anxiety and boredom. I am just looking at today. So, today, my liver is not gonna suffer. My body is thanking me today.
I have never said this before, but I am Paula and I am an addict. Happy Valentine's Day.
I am Kelley and I am an addict. Let's help each other as we work our way through this. I too am scared as well as excited. I am scared of what my life will be if I am not successful on this journey called recovery, and excited for what my life has become in just the short time I have been clean and sober. I am doing it 24hrs at a time. With the help of my Higher Power, which I have not clearly defined yet, and of others like you. Today, I am a Miracle in Progress. And so are you. Peace
