Talkin' Trash • Episode 85

5 guys, burgers and fries tonight. No guest so the team just did their sobriety thing. We talked about airplanes crashing, anthems getting booed and how ridiculously cold it is where Jim chooses to live. Unreal -50° weather. Who voluntarily chooses to live in that. Those puck slapping maple suckers. We expanded on self care and how utterly crucial in early recovery. We also talked about rehab romances. Forget self care now, your new mate is now your higher power and hate to break it to you but they're as messed up as you. We look for distractions, especially in early recovery. We're vulnerable, exposed, defeated. We can make bad choices in that state and most do at least once. It'll end in a relapse. Most of the time it does just that. And if you're lucky, you make it back into recovery with a lesson learned. Not all get that chance so if you're a repeat offender, you might want to listen to what the message says. Admit you're powerless, start there.
