Addiction & Recovery
In reply to the discussion: Why all this "G**" S*** in recovery? [View all]tavalon
(27,985 posts)I have read so many whole books on my recovery, a couple of paragraphs, especially useful to my recovery paragraphs are no problem. Yeah, you do it really different from me but I like it and might well incorporate some of it. I had completely forgotten to list those for whom I harbor resentments. Whoops.
Though, just running them through my head, there's one that falls under the category of not making amends to, since she's threatened to kill me if I get in her vicinity. See, she's married to my ex (the addict) and she is furious that I told him he was an addict and had to stop taking his medication immediately (what I actually said did include the addict word but I urged him to get help, in fact I begged him to get help - one of my many crazy behaviors, begging pleading, being angry, etc.).
Anyway, got off on a tangent there. I will add some of what you said. The front of my journal says, this is Terri's recovery journal. Reading this without authorization could be bad for both of us. Don't do it. Wordy, but I hope it gets the point across.
