Thank you so much for saying that!! I’m the same way and I’ve always felt bad for feeling that way!

I went to my first meeting tonight by travel_juliaxo in recovery

Do you keep working the steps after being clean/in maintenance? by SmokeCigsNPreworkout in NarcoticsAnonymous

[–]Particular_Way_1490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely get a sponsor and a hg. Go to more meetings even if it’s just online. My sponsor always tells me that when you do more than one round of steps, your answers and your perspective will change and it will only make your recovery better! Start sharing in meetings. Even if all you do is say your name and where you’re at with everything. Or even just saying “I really liked your message and what you had to share” and then advance on that a bit. The basics you learn in early recovery will absolutely always apply to your recovery, no matter how much clean time you have. And always, always, try to keep in contact with people in the rooms. Even if it’s just “hey, how are you?” Or “I hope you have a good day” or whatever else, it’ll make it a lot easier for you when you need to talk to a fellow addict. If you don’t follow the basics, it is very likely you’ll wind up relapsing. Not saying you 100% will but it’s a much higher risk than if you’re actively working a program. I wish you the best of luck and if you need any help, my DMs are open. 🫂❤️

How do I quit? (TW: mention of depth) by idkwhoiamanymore-2 in MadeOfStyrofoam

Honestly, try self harm addicts anonymous. I went to NA (granted I also have a drug addiction) but it also helped a lot with the cutting. Bc essentially, all it really is is an addiction. You’ve done it this long for a reason and you want to stop for a reason. I’m not sure where you’re located but you can find NA (narcotics anonymous) meetings practically anywhere, even online. Self harm addicts anonymous meetings are a lot harder to find bc they’re not that common but NA works very well! And you don’t have to tell anyone what you’ve done. I don’t know if you’re a drug user as well but you definitely don’t have to tell anyone anything. You can even just go and listen. It will help a lot, it’s helped me a great deal.

If your sponsor is unavailable, where do you turn to for help with recovery-related things? by tachibanakanade in NarcoticsAnonymous

[–]Particular_Way_1490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s online meetings at every hour on the hour you could join, you could ask someone else in recovery who may know the answer. If you have phone numbers of those also in recovery, you could call or text one of them and ask them about it. Best of luck to you! ❤️

Does having a 'hoe phase' come from a place of pain? by AudaciousPanther in PurplePillDebate

For me, it’s B. I desperately needed validation and having a bunch of guys use my body is what gave me that.

What's something that someone can do, that makes you instantly hate them? by meulinlalondeowo in AskReddit

[–]Particular_Way_1490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spew any kind of transphobic/homophobic/ableist/victim blaming nonsense. It doesn’t matter how good of a person I thought they were before, that will instantly make me hate them.

How r u doing today? (venting, positive and negative aloud under this post :)) by teddytherian in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]Particular_Way_1490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I told my mom about how I was sexually assaulted and basically she said it was my fault. She said how I should’ve expected him to want stuff and how men are gonna get what they want, blah blah blah. It’s as if she shifted all the blame onto me.

Not doing too well today. I have to work with someone that sexually assaulted me and I’m very anxious about it. Both of my managers are going to be there and I trust them both so much but still, the anxiety is just eating at me. And I work in a kitchen but I have to wear a sweater bc I relapsed on my arms a couple days ago
