DO WE TRUST OURSELVES?:

~

Trust can be one of the most confusing concepts in recovery.

An important trust issue we face is learning to trust ourselves.

There will be some who tell us we cannot trust ourselves, we are off base and
out of whack. There are those who would benefit by our mistrusting ourselves.

Self-trust is a healing gift we can give ourselves. How do we acquire it? We
can learn it. What do we do about our mistakes, about those times we thought
we could trust ourselves but were wrong? We accept them, and trust ourselves
anyway.

We know what is best for us. We know what is right for us. If we are wrong, if
we need to change our mind, we will be guided into that – but only by trusting
where we are today.

We can look to others for support and reinforcement, but trust in ourselves is
essential.

Trust ourselves, and we will know whom to trust. Trust ourselves, and we will
know what to do. When we feel we absolutely cannot trust ourselves, trust that
our Higher Power can guide us into truth.
