Honesty is a crucial aspect of any 12-step recovery program, it is essential, to be honest about one’s feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. Many people with addiction struggle with denial, which can prevent them from acknowledging the extent of their problem. By being honest, individuals in recovery can begin to confront the reality of their addiction and take the necessary steps to overcome it.

Another reason why honesty is important in a 12-step recovery program is because it helps build trust and accountability. Recovery requires a strong support network, and that network relies on trust and honesty. When individuals are honest about their struggles and progress, they can build stronger relationships with others in recovery. Honesty also holds individuals accountable for their actions and helps them stay on track with their recovery goals.

Tonight, we talk about the Importance of Honesty

Staying motivated in recovery is crucial for long-term sobriety. 12-step recovery programs offer a structured approach to overcoming addiction, but they also require a significant commitment and dedication from individuals in order to be effective. Without motivation, individuals may struggle to stay on track and achieve their goals of sustained sobriety.

Maintaining motivation in recovery helps individuals to stay focused on their goals and resist the temptation to use drugs or alcohol. It allows them to continue to make progress toward their ultimate goal of living a healthier, happier life free from addiction. Additionally, staying motivated helps individuals to remain engaged with their support network, attend meetings and therapy sessions, and actively participate in their recovery program.

Tonight, we talk about Staying Motivated

Anyone who has battled a substance use disorder would have to admit that it took a significant toll on their relationships. While in the throes of active addiction, all energy is focused on meeting the demands of the substance. This, unfortunately, leads to actions and words that cause harm to loved ones.

Over the course of the substance use period, loved ones stop believing anything you told them. Trust was fractured. Now that you are in recovery, attention is directed toward restoring those relationships and mending the broken trust. In fact, the process of making amends to loved ones in recovery is an essential step in the restoration of trust.

Tonight, we talk about Trust

Forgiveness is a major part of recovery because as long as you remain angry at the people who have hurt you, you’re inflicting new suffering on yourself.

Anger isn’t good for you. Anger and resentment can keep you feeling like a victim. It’s giving someone who has hurt you in the past the power to keep hurting you. It’s important to remember that forgiving others isn’t something you do for them but rather something you do for yourself.
