When things go wrong, my emotional reflex has always been to fix it. Doing something about it was pouring a drink and making a drastic decision to escape the yucky feelings. I hated sitting in the unknown. My anxiety was through the roof. Drinking gave me the illusion that I was doing something about it, but I was only making things worse. Living that way was like gambling on horse races to survive, and I lost the race every day.Sitting in discomfort without trying to outrun isn’t so scary anymore. I still want to fix and control things, but now I pause. I talk to my people. I let the moment breathe. That stillness becomes more comfortable than the drastic measures I used to take. Not everything needs to be solved today. I’m learning to trust the process and let life move in its speed instead of mine.Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and YouTube. For more information, visit me at ⁠⁠⁠recoverydailypodcast.com⁠⁠⁠ or email me at ⁠[email protected]⁠.Visit my Etsy shop, Recovery Upcycling. https://www.etsy.com/shop/RecoveryUpcyclingTo learn more about vestibular disorders visit https://vestibular.org #emotionalsobriety #spiritualawakening #recoveryjourney #alcoholfreeliving #faithoverfear #growththroughdiscomfort #uncertaintytostrength #mentalhealthmatters #onedayatatime #letgoandletgod
