The last couple of days have been difficult in my recovery.
No, I have not wanted to use, but I find myself growing frustrated, impatient, even angry with people, stuffing emotions out of fear. I am becoming withdrawn, resentments are surfacing, feelings of self-pity emerging.
By surrendering my self-will, I try my best to place my faith in my Higher Power for the results, but I cannot control those around me or outcomes – life on life’s terms – and that is good.
Relapse is a process and I am thankful I can recognise these warning signs.
I must establish boundaries and let go of expectations.
Today, I ask my Higher Power for strength and courage to talk to those around me and get back on my recovery track.
