SLUMPS:

~

A slump can go on for days. We feel sluggish, unfocused, and
sometimes overwhelmed with feelings we can't sort out. We may
not understand what is going on with us. Even our attempts to
practice recovery behaviors may not appear to work. We still don't
feel emotionally mentally, and spiritually as good as we would like.

In a slump, we may find ourselves reverting instinctively to old
patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving, even when we know
better.

We may begin taking things personally that are not our issues, and
reacting in ways we've learned all too well do not work.

We don't have to be ashamed, no matter how long we've been
recovering. We don't have to unreasonably expect "more" from
ourselves.

Get through the slump. It will end. Sometimes, a slump can go on
for days and then, in the course of an hour, we see ourselves pull
out of it and feel better. Sometimes it can last a little longer.

Practice one recovery behavior in one small area, and begin to climb
uphill. Soon, the slump will disappear. We can never judge where we
will be tomorrow by where we are today.
