Call Recovered About Acceptance

By: Mark S

November 10, 2016

On Tuesday, November 15, 2016, The Recovery Topic is “Acceptance.”

Acceptance is one of the most important tools in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. There are many things that are out of your control, but if you can accept that everything is the way it’s supposed to be at all times, you can truly attain inner peace. This is often easier said than done.

Let’s talk about this solution. Tap Speakpipe or Wavve (especially if you are outside the Unites States) or call 1-734-288-7510 and answer the following question(s):

What are you trying to accept today and what tools are you using?

Recovered Podcast is live online every Tuesday at 6:30 pm EDT as we record the show. Join the fun and be part of the show.

If you would like to listen to the live stream of the show, just tap Recovered Chat and Live Stream. We give away an Amazon gift card each week, you could win if you join us on Tuesdays.

Friends Outside the Program – Recovered 755

By: Mark S

November 9, 2016

Some have recommended that those who are in early recovery

(the first couple of years)

limit contact with former drinking and drug using friends.

This is not to say they are bad, just maybe not the healthiest choice during early recovery.

We will explore this position.

What are your thoughts on this recommendation, limiting contact with using friends early on?

Why do you think this is recommended?
What was your experience during early recovery?

Now let’s talk about later in recovery.
Let’s talk about after the obsession to use has been lifted.
Some recovery professionals say
one of the important tasks that people undertake in early recovery is to build a new social support network of people who support their sobriety. These do not necessarily have to be people in recovery,
but they should not be those who are actively involved in substance abuse.

This means that by the time the person has been sober for a few years they will have all the friends and support they need.

Thoughts, opinion?
Do you socialize with people who drink?
Do you find this awkward?
How do you react when people ask for permission to drink?

Do you socialize with people who actively use drugs?
Is this different for you thank for people who drink?
Why or why not?

Do you serve alcohol at home?
Why or why not?
