Do You Have an Addict in Your Life?

Daily affirmations that work #3

I picked up this affirmation in the halls of Al-Anon.

Feelings aren’t facts: Your feelings are 100% legitimate. This doesn’t suggest that you should dismiss them. Instead, it impresses that even though you are feeling these deep emotions, they aren’t necessarily logical. They may not be based in reality.

For example: You may not apply for a job because you feel inferior in some way. When the fact of the matter is that you are overqualified.

If you have been affected by an addict, there is a safe place for you in Al-Anon. I attended for years when I lived in Boston. It’s amazing how much you’ll find that you have in common with the other participants.

Addiction is a family disease. It’s okay to recognize that you need help as well.

I highly recommend giving it a try!
