I don’t see much interaction on this app and I was really hoping that this would be something I would be following a lot but we need interaction from everybody. I’ve been in recovery ❤️‍🩹 for 29 years, but I haven’t always stayed sober through all of that. I have about a year and a half now let’s communicate with each other and help each other guys and girls. We need each other.

What’s up everyone? Belle here — your unapologetic recovering addict, substance counselor, and chief mess-maker at Progress is Progress. If you’re new around here or haven’t said hi yet… welcome home. This isn’t your average recovery space. No toxic positivity. No perfect Instagram-filtered healing journeys. Just real-ass people talking about the messy, beautiful, brutal, and hilarious truth of addiction, mental health, codependency, relapse, wins, and everything in between. Progress IS Progress — even when it’s ugly, tiny, or two steps forward and one giant face-plant backward. Let’s reintroduce ourselves properly! Drop a comment below and tell us: Your name (or what you want us to call you) One thing nobody would ever guess about you (the weirder/funnier/more surprising, the better) And throw in a GIF, meme, or funny reaction that represents where you’re at in your journey right now I’ll go first: I’m Belle — I went from meth addict with multiple suicide attempts and rock bottom to licensed clinical substance abuse counselor. Plot twist: I’m still a chaotic gremlin who stress-bakes at 2am and owns way too many houseplants I keep accidentally murdering. Your turn! 👇 Comment. Share this post. Post a GIF that screams “this is me today.” Tag a friend who needs this space. Let’s wake this community up and make it the realest, most supportive corner of the internet. No pressure to be polished. Just be you. Shame dies here. Progress lives here. Let’s fucking goooo 🚀 With messy love and badass grit, Belle ❤️

I’m laying in bed after a fight I had. I quit. Officially turning myself in to a hospital and staying there until I’m dead. Never meant to be a winner.

Hey, guys hope all is well with you. Made it to three weeks without relapsing and I now have a job that pays well. I’m at a PHP as well and see a therapist regularly. My next goals are to continue these things and get in contact with some social services for housing. I’m still keeping my promise with Alexy and still not dating anyone at the moment. I get tempted to ask girls often, but I snap myself out of it enough just in time. I wanted to ask all of you is me being motivated by having a girlfriend again a good or bad thing? I know I have to do these things for me, but I can’t help but ponder this question. Let me know your thoughts
