โNearly four years ago I was exactly where you are. It was methadone clinic every morning and I couldn't see past it. Last month I had people round for dinner. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. You're not on your own.โ
โI was in the same place eighteen months ago. I remember nA meetings like it was yesterday. My kids say I'm back. One day at a time.โ
โFor anyone starting recovery: it's not easy, but you can do it. I'm only a few months in myself, but I know that asking for help and accepting it is the first step. God willing, you'll find your way. Take it one day at a time, and don't be afraid to lean on your family and friends. You're not alone in this.โ
โIf you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm wriing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. Getting outside first thing, even for five minutes, helps my mood a lot. Go slowly.โ
