[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 706259, member: 18958"] When I was young into middle age I had a fear of success. It seems when I attained anything I would get anxious and almost want to undue it. There must be something similar that happens in recovery, where the reality of it hits you and with it ambivalence. Do I want to stay clean? Do I want all of this responsibility? Can I do this? Do I want to? Or is it the opposite, overconfidence. If I can do this so well...I can control the drugs. Just one time. Or this drug, not that one. You know what they say about relapse being part of recovery. I know that is not reassuring...but what more can you do? He has to do it. [/QUOTE]
