DISCOMFORT:


Our goal in recovery is to make
ourselves feel comfortable, peaceful,
content. Sometimes, to do that, we
need to be willing to face, feel and
get through discomfort.

I am not talking here about being
addicted to misery and pain. I'm
talking about the legitimate
discomfort we sometimes need to
feel as we heal.

When we have surgery, the pain
hurts most the day after the
operation. When we do the kind of
work we are facing in recovery, we
are doing an emotional, mental, and
spiritual surgery on ourselves.

We are strong enough to survive
discomfort and temporary feelings
of emotional pain. Once we are
willing to face and feel our
discomfort and pain, we are
almost to the point of release.
