MY PERSONAL SANITY

Am I truly sane? Ever ask yourself that question secretly?

In my years up to age 46, I can honestly say I never gave much conscious thought to my sanity. Of course I was sane; I was functioning as a member of society, a parent and a ton of other roles.

But something inside always niggled, some of the things I did were not “normal” and were fairly high risk. I learned after 46 to think of these behaviors as a “sanity” issue and without guilt or shame. I’m far better off for it!

Sanity

Recovery taught me that willingness to believe was enough for a beginning.

It's been true in my case, nor could I quarrel with "restore us to sanity," for my actions, drunk or sober, before recovery, were not those of a sane person.

My desire to be honest with myself made it necessary for me to realize that my thinking was irrational.
-- Alcoholics Anonymous, p. 550

This reading provided me with a great reminder of the moments of clarity the recovery process has given me. And these moments have allowed me to take massive action to address my living problems. Today, those moments of insanity are few and far between as long as I follow the co-creative process of life recovery. I am grateful daily to those who helped me co-create this journey.
