This! It is common that people have to deal with stuff that had been buried for years when they get sober. I have sometimes felt shamed by others in recovery for talking about my struggles and not just saying sobriety is great. It is great, but it doesn’t help others to lie.

It doesn't matter our background, #addiction doesn't discriminate between ethnicity, class, religion, political affiliation, or education. Don't let these differences tear us apart, instead focus on the path of #Recovery and tune out the rest of the noise.

Our negative self-beliefs are part of our #trauma. They’re conclusions we came to when we were frightened. They are strong, yes. But you are stronger. #ptsd #recovery

Thanks everyone for the feedback on my Friday tweet regarding a previous therapist. You have provided some clarity. I have to admit that the realization of how wrong he was and that I didn’t see it, is difficult to take. Have a good week everyone 💛

Feedback requested: If a woman is seeing a male therapist and during a session he says that he went home at lunch and sex with his girlfriend and then goes on to talk about how great the sex was.... Is that abuse? Or just highly inappropriate? Thanks for the help.

He also asked me how many men I had slept with during my addiction and then told me if another man ever asks you that...lie. But until yesterday I didn’t question that he was trying to help me. Now I’m questioning his motives.

When I was little I thought Harold Reid from The Statler Brothers was my dad. I saw him on tv more than I saw my dad who was always working and they look a little bit alike. Harold Reid died last week, and I am sad about it. Unexpected but there it is.
