Listen "Trudging the Road: Overcoming Discouragement "
Episode Synopsis
I’m an expert at feeling discouraged. That’stypical for someone who is always looking for immediate gratification. When Ifirst got sober, I wanted to fix everything overnight. My emotions, my past, andmy relationships were terribly raw when I removed the cover of alcohol. Whenthings didn’t change fast enough, discouragement crept in, and I consideredgiving up on the whole recovery thing. But discouragement is a reminder thatI’m human and that failure IS a realistic option. When I slide down the slipperyslope of discouragement into self-pity, I’m trying to control too much insteadof surrendering.As the Daily Reflection today states, thereis a power within me is far greater than any fear before me, but I must acceptmy limitations to unleash hope.
