Ugh. Seriously, the audacity of some people! Just had this whole interaction where someone was trying to tell me how I should be feeling about something in my past and it took every ounce of my being not to just explode. Like, excuse me, you weren't there! You don't know the journey. It's just so frustrating when people think they know best, especially when it comes to something as personal as recovery. It's moments like these I have to really ground myself and remember why I'm about to hit 2 months sober. Because I deserve to feel my feelings, even the angry ones, and not have some ignorant person try to invalidate them. It’s a good reminder that not everyone gets it, and that's okay. But it doesn't mean their opinions get to define my experience. Just needed to vent a little. 🔥 So glad this community exists.
