Some thoughts about recovery. * Take what you like and leave the rest.
Feeling angry – and, sometimes, the act of blaming – is a naturaland necessary part of accepting loss and change – of grieving.
As we come to terms with loss and change, we may blameourselves, our Higher Power, or others. The person may beconnected to the loss, or he or she may be an innocent bystander.We've learned that blame doesn't help. In recovery, thewatchwords are self-responsibility and personal accountability,not blame. Ultimately, surrender and self-responsibility are theonly concepts that can move us forward, but to get there we mayneed to allow ourselves to feel angry and to occasionally indulge insome blaming.
It is helpful, in dealing with others, to remember that they, too,may need to go through their angry stage to achieve acceptance.To not allow others, or ourselves, to go through anger and blamemay slow down the grief process.
We won't stay angry forever. But we may need to get mad for awhile as we search over what could have been, to finally acceptwhat is.
