Returning to Sanity
Today
I feel insane. I’ve been in recovery for three years now and this feeling of
insanity inside of me has lessened. But today I am in the throes of it and
confusion and uncertainty have set in. I’m experiencing anger, disappointment,
resentment, false hope, obsession, and the need to let go of control. I find
myself struggling between letting go of control and obsessing over the
situation. It’s a tough situation and involves a family member that has serious
mental illness.
Today,
I went to a meeting, have been reaching out to my higher power, and doing my
best to let go of control. I’m practicing self-care by taking a hot bath. I
know tomorrow will be a new day and there is hope in a new day.
I’m
so thankful that I have CoDA meetings and tools to help me through this
difficult day. Prior to CoDA I would have been in a dark place not seeing any
light, suffering, and not seeing there may be a lesson in today. Thank you,
Higher Power, for showing me there is a new way!
