Walking on the road to recovery ........ 🤔

TeejSenior Contributor28 Nov 2017, 8:40 pm AEDT

Walking on the road to recovery ........ 🤔

Hmmm. Where to start? I’m not sure starting with a metaphor that brings mixed emotions is perhaps the best way to title a new thread, but just now it feels apt.

@NikNik has put up her picture of recovery up in the past. At first I hated it because I wanted that nice straight linear line (expectations) ......the one where the magic wand comes included 😯😝

So now that I’m finally accepting the reality that the road to recovery doesn’t exist on google maps (and there isnt a magic wand), I'm left with having to make it up as I go along.........and if there was one there wouldn’t be a measurement of how long the road was 😏

Please feel free to join in and tell your stories too of the good, the bad and the ugly of recovery.

😊💜

Sending lots of hugs to all here who I’ve responded to this thread.

I wanted to return my response to here @Faith-and-Hope. Until a couple of hours ago I was winding up to self destruct.......but I was able to find another piece of the puzzle with some help and it’s calmed my farm no end. I want to write more later but am needing to make the most of the light for now. Days are getting shorter ☹️. Thanks for asking. 💜🤗

@Bunniekins thanks for the tag earlier too 😊. When I’m more on top of things I’ll have a decent fly around forum land again
