This is my first post on something like this. I have begin a journey to get clean and healthy. I have not taken anything in 3 weeks. I have also begun a weight loss process where I have list 30 pounds. I don't know how I let myself get so out of control. So I'm taking on 2 challenges, and I'm determined to be successful. Any tips?
Our literature encourages the new comer to keep coming back, and come back CLEAN! Sounds like 3 weeks is a great start, congratulations!! I can only speak on what works for me but regular NA meeting attendance has helped MANY addicts including myself in early recovery. Getting to know other people, finding a sponsor (someone to help guide you in recovery and steps) and reading NA literature are great ways to stay focused on recovery. If you are determined and willing to take suggestions from others you will be just fine. Recovery isnt always easy but its worth it. And keep in mind you dont have to be perfect just dont use no matter what! The rest will start to get easier. Im not sure where youre located but o encourage of you havent already, find a meeting list for your area and get to as many as you can!
Hope this message finds you having an awesome day! (:
