"Many of the strategies #adolescents use to regulate emotions, such as self-harm behaviors or substance use, are typically regarded as severe problems by parents and clinicians but as solutions to problems by the adolescents." Lars Mehlum, MD, PhD #recoveryposse #Parents

Finding beauty in the ordinary moments of sobriety. Each wonderfully ordinary day is a victory worth celebrating. The simple gift of presence, clarity, and peace.

DREAMER BOY - Bypo Revolution , When I see youI see nascent joyChained by webs of self-deception When I hear your voiceSometimes I hear honesty and vulnerabilitySometimes evasion and rationalization I feel your potentialI feel you...

You are a dreamer boy
And I love you religiously
I feel devotion to your journey
I feel the pulse of tantric alchemy

💜 an inciteful home group meeting

💜 that my mum is recovering from some niggly injuries

💜 a rare moment of serenity today

Nite peeps 💜

I started recovery b/c I'd devastated my life on every level and was beyond exhausted and miserable. To stay in recovery, I had to deal with my trauma, take ownership of my recovery plan, and put a lot of effort into #sobriety during the 1st 18 months. #addiction #recoveryposse

FOREVER YOUNG - Bypo Revolution Time is daunting Drugs no longer please Forever young What I once wished to be Hurt left unspokenAgony in my eyesUnmanageable emotionsDrove me back to getting high Since age 15 I’ve dealt with this disease Getting clean in my 20’sA fucking miracle to me From obsession to surrender Tantric energy radiates Relating scarring pasts Alleviating self hate I am learning to survive […]

I am learning to survive feelings
Gaining the power to trust my mind
There’s beauty in this pain
My transformation, from drunk to wise

Today I am grateful for being able to attend a counter protest against the far right. I feel like we have fascists on our streets and staying silent is not an option. #recoveryposse

Celebrating 4 years sober today! So proud to say that! Going to keep kicking ass and taking it one day at a time and staying sober! 🤘🏻🥳🤘🏻🥳🤘🏻 #RecoveryPosse #recovery #sober #SoberLiving #sobriety

Got to announce my 2 year sober birthday at my regular Saturday meeting that I go to and got love from all the people I see on a regular basis 🥰

It felt like a hug 🫂

Undermining the grip of addiction
Offering the vulnerability of male presence
