On a journey of discovery

@Sidneymacsid

Congratulations on your recovery! The first question is where do these destructive feelings stem from? Is this hereditary? What about past relationships can you share some insight?

@Sidneymacsid Congratulations on being sober for 4 years! You're doing amazing, I wish you the best in your journey of self-discovery!

Congratulations on your recovery journey. It's a rough journey which means you're a strong person to get through that. I'd like to see it's easier to treat yourself well, but it isn't. I have been practicing that for the first time in my life for the past year. I am in the middle of very low budget decorating my home. And while it's for everyone who lives in my house, it feels a little selfish on my part. Keep thinking I should be saving the money for rainy days because you know they come. But I haven't let myself have anything before. I guess I didn't think I deserved it. Still struggling with that a bit. You deserve to be treated well by those around you AND by you.

Dear Sidneymacsid,

I admire your honesty with yourself and others. I believe you should start saying or thinking positive things about yourself to yourself.
