A few thoughts on the holidays, and the challenges they have presented, as well as the legitimate joy they can bring.
The holidays can be difficult for people in recovery So many holiday traditions involve alcohol, the office party, the Christmas cheer, and let’s not even get started on New Years Eve.
There is this idea that the holidays should FEEL different than other days. Your relationships should feel closer. There should be a warm and cozy fireside feeling in our hearts. We should feel like the Christmas songs and Hallmark cards and commercials and Love Actually promises we will feel. But how about embracing how we actually feel? Whatever YOUR holidays look like for you, rather than missing them because you think they're supposed to feel like someone else's Instagram.
