I’m a believer in meetings, for me it’s gotten easier to get attend new and different ones and I’ve become more willing to share. But there’s. Many other ways for me exercise and journaling.

It was very scary for me to step away from meetings but they were in no way serving me. I was surrounded by people that had convinced me to “leave” it to relapse. But that wasnt the case. I felt such a lift from my shoulders. I dove into rebuilding healthy relationships, going to lunch/coffee, finding hobbies I enjoyed, I spent A LOT of time repurposing broken shit and selling it, thrifting etc. Started exercising and found a great job.
