I should logically be able to state, without reservation, which of those five feelings was hurt. However, the reality is that no one can define which of the five feeling categories was hurt, because feelings by themselves cannot be hurt. It's our egos that get bruised. <div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" data-url=https://fromaddict2advocate.com/hurt-feelings-or-bruised-ego/></div>

It doesn't matter what your rock bottom was; some are high, and some are low. That's the nature of bottoms; they are not predictable. But whatever your bottom was, there's someone out there who has a similar story and just needs to know how to get up and succeed. That's where your story comes in. If you don't write it, that person doesn't know that someone else survived and thrived. <div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" data-url=https://fromaddict2advocate.com/how-your-recovery-message-makes-a-difference/></div>

Facebook has many groups for alcoholics and addicts that I think function in many ways, like an old-fashioned 12-Step call. Someone posts that they've relapsed and don't know what to do. Almost immediately, an admin will ask for suggestions, or someone will post meeting times. It's a great way to help get someone back home. <div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" class="sharethis-inline-share-buttons" data-url=https://fromaddict2advocate.com/help-them-find-their-way-back-home/></div>
