Change

[caressa]

A link that was informative about healing grief. When we come into recovery, the loss of our drug of choice makes us vulnerable and we go through major grieving. Many doctors diagnose this as depression and dole out pills, when in fact it is a natural grieving process.

Have been thinking about this and realizing how much change brings about grief. The loss of ideals, what could or would have been, respect, worth, esteem, integrity, etc. all brings about a grieving process. The loss of a loved one, be it family or friend, either by a death, a job, a move, or circumstance in our life, like my friend and my son who I have had to detach from.

Right now we are just entering the grief stage as hubby's sponsor is moving on to another place.

Thanks for the link.
