A person in recovery confronts the thought that you deserve to use after hitting milestones or rough weeks. Instead: you deserve peace and freedom, the power to control your choices, and honesty with yourself to stop making excuses.
Happy Monday. Let me debunk the bullshit excuse you're using to use crystal meth. Excuse of the week is, I deserve it. You've worked hard all week, you've paid your bills, you're living as a citizen. I deserve to use crystal meth on the weekends. Or my favorite, I've been sober for X amount of months, I deserve to have fun. I want you to really listen to what you're saying. You deserve to relapse and use crystal meth because you've been sober From crystal meth. You deserve to use crystal meth because your job is stressful and you've handled it well this week. What you deserve is a life of peace, a life of freedom. You deserve to love yourself enough to say no to crystal meth. What you deserve is enough personal power to take control of your life. You deserve to be honest with yourself and stop making excuses.
