Well I'm glad that you working it out this time. Just remember a support system is key to recovery, if nothing else, they atleast provide a healthy level of guilt/accountability to follow through. This is why support groups are effective. You trust these people to help you and you don't want to let them down or disappoint. I think guilt can be healty in that instance. Although I am hesitant to use the word because of all its bad implications. Think of it more as your conscious helping you out, that is healthy guilt, when you don't actually do something you commited to.

A counsiler told me that when you know what the expectations are then its ok. But if its a revolving set of standards and are unclear what they are then its bad to feel that way.

With that said, maybe try to make a list of things that you want to accomplish, and work on follow through. Start small, and be forgiving to yourself. That is the hardest people to be easy on.


Take care Brother,
SageTree
