.kaleb...welcome to the NA forum! Thanks for sharing your very inspiring story, and reaching out when you need it!
...in times of challenge, I find much relief in knowing that this program is...'JUST FOR TODAY' If I get through just this one day clean, the rest will take care of itself!
Tell yourself:
Just for today my thoughts will be on my recovery, living and enjoying life without the use of drugs.
Just for today I will have faith in someone in NA who believes in me and wants to help me in my recovery.
Just for today I will have a program. I will try to follow it to the best of my ability.
Just for today, through NA, I will try to get a better perspective on my life.
Just for today I will be unafraid, my thoughts will be on my new associations, people who are not using and who have found a new way of life. So long as I follow that way, I have nothing to fear.
