Happy Hump Day errybody! 🐫 Anyone else needing a little encouragement to make it to Friday?? We talk an awful lot about our experiences, mess-ups, and victories on our recovery journey’s… (which is kinda the point for this page, I guess LOL) HOWEVER… let’s give that a break for a moment, shall we? We’d like to hear from YOU. What’s on your mind today! What experience, strength, or hope do you have to share? Are you struggling? Did you grow through some challenges this week? How’s work? What are the kids up to? How’s ya momma and’em 🤣😂 • • • • #sharethegoodnews #experience #strength #hope #sobersupport #recoverysupport #soberblogger #recoveryblog #sober #sobriety #sobercommunity #recoverycommunity #addiction #addictionrecovery #soberthoughts #whatsupwednesday #wednesdayvibes #humpday #positivevibes #soberinstagram #soberinspiration #sobermovement #sobermotivation #sobertribe #odaat #carrythemessage https://www.instagram.com/p/CpiD41duDkK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Past is Not Today! Living in the past, wallowing in the shame and guilt of past actions; regret and self-pity gets us nowhere. The past is just that, the past. We can’t go back and change, but we can learn from it. Our past is a place of reference NOT of residence. We can choose to learn from our pasts, just as important though, is learning to live in today! 🙌🏻 • • • • #liveinthemoment #livefortoday #justfortoday #noregrets #liveinthepresent #onedayatatime #recoveryblog #recoveryworks #learningexperience #learnfromyourmistakes #soberinspiration #sobermovement #sobermotivation #soberinstagram #soberstrong #recoveringalcoholic #recoverywarrior #recoverystrong #recoverystories #soberwarrior #wedorecover #recoveryispossible #addictionrecovery #sobercommunity #recoverycommunity #alcoholicsanonymous #friendsofbillw #soberquotes #addictionquotes #recoveryposse https://www.instagram.com/p/Cphr38uuWAn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The great paradox of addiction is that while it’s is not a conscious choose/decision we make or personal failing we’re too weak to overcome, we do have to make a decision to choose sobriety. Being an alcoholic or struggling with addiction means that I am bodily and mentally different from “normal people.” My brain functions just fine in every other situation other than where drugs and alcohol are involved. I have a disease, one of the only diseases in the world that tries to convince me I don’t have it. My brain plays tricks on me that convinces to to self-sabotage, self-destruct, and burn my own life to the ground. The absurdity is that with the proper resources and support, I can turn the volume down on that little voice in my head. Essentially, I had to learn to get out of my own way so that the rational, logical, and “sane” parts of my brain could take over. The only thing holding me back, was the part of me that I didn’t know how to let go of. I was my biggest problem. I was the roadblock that kept putting the bottle in my hand. The biggest problem between drunk me and sober me was… ME! • • • • #iamtheproblem #selfsabotage #selfdestruction #addictionisadisease #addictionsucks #wedorecover #recoveryispossible #recoveryisreal #sobersupport #sobersunday #addictionsupport #addiction #addictionrecovery #sobercommunity #recoverycommunity #alcoholfreecommunity #soberthoughts #soberinstagram #sober #sobriety #soberinspiration #sobermotivation #selfawareness #odaat #recoveringalcoholic https://www.instagram.com/p/CpatoXyuf3s/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
