Many people who are living in one day at a time recovery realize when we miss awareness. When we realize we are no longer living a reasonable, happy, and functional life we need to reach out. Perhaps we start to blame others for our difficulties. Perhaps everyone we know appears to be unhappy and negative. We believe this is the reason we have no energy and have withdrawn from activities we used to enjoy. Perhaps we are so depressed we cannot go to work. We blame others. Then we realize we are missing awareness. One day at a time recovery has given us the ability to reach out. We talk to a professional. We get treatment. Realizing we have lost our awareness has led us to regain good health. These stumbling blocks can happen to anyone. We know this. Reach out. Be aware. It’s important. So are we.
