Just reminding you that if you hold out then 'ה will pay you back
This didnt help for me. Maybe it helps for you. When my sole intention of staying sober is schar or really anything that someone is going to do for me (for example when i first started recovery my Rabbi said 3 months and then you cans start dating so obviously a lot of intention of staying sober was because of dating) doesnt help me stay sober or recover. It doesnt work. I tried tapsic, i tried challenging my self, rewarding myself but it never worked. Also, for me, its very selfish. I am recovering for me? For myself? So that i will get what i want? Wait isnt that the problem? Isnt the problem that I am being really selfish and i want to lust everything in sight and everyone should do whatever i want!
Sobriety is a gift for me. Mamash, a gift. I dont deserve it. I dont deserve the bracha that Hashem has given me in recovery. I am very grateful.
