In early sobriety, I was sitting in a periodontist chair being offered laughing gas, and I got way too excited. That was my red flag. The addict in me found a loophole. But the woman I’ve become in recovery knew to pause. I asked the dental hygienist for a moment so I could call my sponsor. Admittedly I was uncomfortable, but I called my sponsor right there from the dentist chair. I ended up choosing Novocain instead. My sponsor suggested that only I knew what’s right for me in that moment, and I trusted my gut. That dentist’s office became one of my first big sobriety wins.Just because I’m in recovery doesn’t mean I have to experience pain. But I do ask for guidance, listen to my Higher Power, and make honest decisions about my health. I take my medications as prescribed, and I don’t chase highs. I chase serenity, and I get to trust myself today.Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and YouTube. Rather listen on Apple Podcasts? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/recovery-daily-podcast/id1693924779 Visit my Etsy shop, and join my creative journey at Recovery Upcycling. https://www.etsy.com/shop/RecoveryUpcycling To learn more about vestibular disorders visit https://vestibular.org #SobrietyJourney #EmotionalSobriety #RecoveryWins #OneDayAtATime #SoberNotSilent #TrustTheProcess #MedicationInRecovery #HigherPowerHealing #AddictionRecovery #SpiritualFitness
