Some people living with mental health disorders and addiction understand that in reality and in the awareness of ones’ reality that they have never been so well. With the writing that we do be it the work of journaling or the writings that 12 step personhoods suggest that we do we will eventually learn that one day at a time recovery is a process of one day one day one day reality in as difficult and in as joyous that it is. In our abstinence some of us say “I have never been more anxious but I have never been so well.” Today we know that we have a choice and with that choice we find true freedom from not only active addiction but from the need to perfect or in control of everything to be well. Life becomes reasonable, doable, and we become content. We are grateful. Peace.
