Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Coping with fear
After getting sober, we may suddenly become very fearful. Situations that never bothered us in our using days loom up at us. Some of us feel terror when riding with a careless driver. Some of us feel panicky at the thought of a burglar. Some of us fear losing our jobs for no good reason.
As we regain our sanity, we may feel our lives become extraordinarily valuable. This is good, but it will help if we can practice trusting in our Higher Power and the fellowship.
In time, our fears will diminish. Am I learning to handle fear?
Higher Power, help me to believe that my process is normal and that I am not alone.
I will deal with my fear today by…
Hazelden Foundation
