Once a month, hosts David and Christian take questions from the community and chop them up over various topics of recovery and spirituality.
In this episode:
How long did it take for you to be able to trust yourself and your decisions again?
( Pg.86 – Under these conditions we can employ our mental faculties with assurance, for after all God gave us brains to use. )
How do you know the difference between a good decision and a selfish decision?
E.g. God’s Will, Self Will.
How do you know when your old behaviors start to resurface?
( Process addictions & habits that you’ve changed to prevent the cycle from continuing)
Do you ever miss drinking or using? If so, what do you do about those thoughts?
(pg. 85 – “We are not fighting it, neither are we avoiding temptation. We feel as though we had been placed in a position of neutrality – safe and protected. We have not even sworn off. Instead, the problem has been removed. It does not exist for us. We are neither cocky nor are we afraid. That is our experience. That is how we react so long as we keep in a fit spiritual condition.”
Fit spiritual condition?
What’s been the hardest thing you’ve had to face in sobriety and how did you get through it? — What’s something you never thought you’d be able to get through sober but did?
Does it get easier to talk to people and socialize?
How do you stop letting fear control your life?
Is that possible?
What was the hardest part about getting sober / staying sober?
