Day 402

Good afternoon!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  When I got sober, I wanted it now.  I wanted to be sober. I wanted to be haopy.  I wanted everyone's trust back. I wanted everything to be back the way it was when I was sober and normal right away.  Well, it wasn't going to happen like that.  It didn't happen overnight for me to become a raging, reclusive, alcocholic, and is sure wasn't going to happen overnight for people to trust me again or things be the way they were before.  It was going to take time.  I was going to have to be patient. That was one of the major things I learned in treatment I needed to work on.  I am a very impatient person. Sometimes I just need to take a deep breath and relax for a second.  It will happen when it happens. Another quote I like is.  "You cannot heal a lifetime of pain overnight-be patient with yourself. It takes as long as it takes to rebuild yourself."  Habits are hard to break, but it is possible, but it does take time.  And if you are breaking a bad habit, it is so worth it.  That's all I got for today.  Have a great one!
