Addiction & Sobriety
🐡✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
@SummerKay2024
To me everyone who overcomes addiction is a hero! 👍
@SummerKay2024 that is a hard lesson to learn. I found it easier to follow any impulse than to lead a life with discipline and purpose.
But when I found out the results of such a life it was easier to reign in that wildness.
@soulsings
Love ur words
When I think of relapse ..I remind myself what I overcame and to focus on the root cause of my self destructive behaviors 🫶🐡✨️✨️✨️
I learned from childhood abuse how much it hurts to be treated that way and what behaviours towards others to avoid repeating, so as to never make others feel what I went through - to the very best of my ability.
@Zeraphim
The hardest experiences can increase empathy in a person. I wish though you would not have had to go through it. 💙
@amiablePeace77 Thank you. It's a good thing empathy is a learnable skill and trauma isn't necessary to improve <3
@Zeraphim
Is it really very nice thing to get this lesson. What happened to yourself is really heartbroken. But you decide that you will not give anyone those things is really a step towards breaking a cycle of trauma.
@amiablePeace77
I learned how to be empathetic and kind and respectful and everything else positive towards others as well as myself along with being my authentic myself and accepting me as I am without caring how others feel about me. And of course to never give up and take any and every win no matter how big or small or when or where or how the win happened. I’ve also learned to accept every challenge that comes to me and even taking the challenge despite not winning it is a win in itself. I’ve also learned to always appreciate and be proud of myself and keep telling myself how proud I am of me.
I know you asked for one lesson so sorry for giving so many more but these were too inspiring for whoever reads it not to add them.
@akunknown
From what you wrote I believe you are a true friend to yourself! 👍
I love and agree to what you said about " taking the challenge despite not winning it is a win in itself".
@amiablePeace77
I am most definitely my closet, most trusted/trustworthy and most best friend.
Glad you loved what I said about challenges and taking it bc I meant every word of it I said. Hopefully it inspires or influences someone to take the challenge rather than just say no to it.
@amiablePeace77 That life doesn't stop no matter who leaves or stays. We have to keep going.
@BlueDarkAurora
I very much agree with you - keep going!

Be empathic to people is a hard lesson I learned that I am grateful for.
@Admirablerainbow2825
Nice that you feel gratitude for what you learned!
@amiablePeace77 Speak up for yourself, your feelings are as valid as theirs

@Kaydeee
You Matter!
@amiablePeace77
The hard lesson I learned is that I can survive on my own. I moved to Miami for school- with no family or friends, and for the first few months I had only $300. I learned how to go hungry. I learned what being a hurricane feels like and going to a tent city for food in the aftermath. I learned I like earthquakes better.
@NotAllHere713
You have a hard time behind you, and I could imagine it made you stronger than you ever were. I hope things will get easier in future.
@amiablePeace77
Iam grateful to learn hard lessons is accept oneself in any circumstances.
@Feelfree667
Accept oneself in any circumstances! 👍
@amiablePeace77
Death is inevitable. Losing a loved one is something we all have to go through at some point in life. It's one of those unavoidable phases of life.
@trueconfidant123
I agree trueconfidant. Enjoy the moments you have together.

i did not learn this it just hit harder 3 years ago when i was a freshman. ppl are jerks and if you even seem slightly diffrent ppl shy away from you but if you have a para the will be like to negitive sides of a magnet and i knew this but when me and my friends who are eather asd have a para or are blind hit highschool well ot hit harder and i being who i am gravitated twords them so now i have the best friends ever and traslate ASD english into "nyrotypical" englesh and vice versa most of the day and act as a human guid albite not a good one but still a funny one so yay
@alysianna
I am glad that you made best friends with those people. I believe that people who live with challenges have a greater understanding of how hard life can be and embrace others with more empathy.
