I came into recovery with confusion and pain. I live in recovery now, with the rest of the world, it seems. I do not feel seperate from others emotionally anymore. I know they understand me when I speak, and I understand them. I'd tell them if I was confused, as would they tell me if they were confused. This is a gift of recovery for me. It was worth dragging my butt to meetings, against my desire to raise "you know what." I hope other addicts can find their way out from addiction/slavery. tks...
