Hey Vintagehoby glad your back on here. I wish I could say that the process doesn’t get messy like it just did for me but it’s part of the journey of healing. I’m glad that you can at least see that there is an ability to get through the tough times without needing to “use” whatever addiction it is we have to numb the feelings. I have had many addictions so I could self distruct in many different ways right now but I dont want to. I’ve worked really hard to keep myself away from gambling and substances to want to retreat to those. The partners or family/friends will need time as we cause alot of trauma to them. I’ve accepted that and thats all we can do as people in recovery. Wishing you another 24 take care ?
