Never look down on someone unless you're leaning over to help them up.
I've been seeing JADE lately
It describes what we do when we try and leave our recovery aside when dealing with the addict: Justify, Argue, Defend, Explain
Another one for FEAR was Frantic Efforts to Appear Recovered. I got that one. It is when I put my ego in front of my recovery so I try and prove I'm really good When I am not. Recovery goes all the way down. I can fake it to a newcomer but real recovery doesn't need to prove anything.
QTIP: Quit. Taking. It. Personally.
LOVE: Let. Others. Voluntarily. Evolve.
THINK is it..?: Thoughtful. Honest. Intelligent. Necessary. Kind.
I decided to collect these so I keep them on a list. I hope to do some nice art about them.
Thank you for being here
