BEHAVIOR:


Relationships are the blessing and bane of
recovery. Relationships are where we take our
recovery show on the road.

Each day, we are faced with the prospect of
functioning in several different relationships.
Sometimes, we choose these relationships;
sometimes, we don't. The one choice we
usually have in our relationships concerns our
own behavior.

We're learning to acknowledge our power to
take care of ourselves in our relationships.
We're learning to be intimate with people
when possible.

Do we need to detach from someone who
we've been trying to control? Is there
someone we need to talk to, even though
what we have to say may be uncomfortable?
Is there someone we've been avoiding
because we're afraid to take care of ourselves
with that person? Do we need to make an
amend? Is there someone we need to reach
out to, or show love?

Recovery is not done apart from our
relationships. Recovery is done by learning
to own our power and to take care of
ourselves in relationships.
